Yet another person in need of an Algae ID. I have reviewed things online, and I'm just not skilled in the art of ID apparently. I do have a microscope, but I'm not sure what areas need to be photographed that would help. So, here are some in-tank, on a white paper plate and then under a microscope. My tangs don't touch this stuff, and it doesn't look like GHA I've seen before, and it is impossible to entirely remove by pulling at it when it is on a rock. I suppose some kind of "turf algae", but I know that isn't exactly specific. As with everyone else, I'm looking to get an ID and a path to eradicate it beyond what I already know I need to do in reducing phosphate/nitrates probably. Ideally something that would eat it of course. I have been trying Vibrant for a few months on the once a week dose, and for the last few weeks I have increased to twice a week and haven't seen any positive change (it has grown more).
