Problem algae - don't think it is Bryopsis

[stylolvr]

I have a green macroalgae starting to become a problem in my tank. I don't think it's Bryopsis, but I am definately no macroalgea expert. Is there anything (crabs, fish, etc.) that will take care of this???

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Looks like hair algae to me, and along with all algaes the only true cure is better water quality. Better skimmer, more water changes, Phos reactor, less photoperiod, less feedings. I hope I am not insulting you. Maybe a better pic would change my mind, but it looks like HA to me.

I have the same thing in my tank right now and It is due to way to high nitrates but I hope you have better control of your tank them me. Oh I looked everywhere and the best thing I have come up with is mermaids hair/hair algae. Good luck I hate the stuff. :bum: :bum:
