What to do about caleurpa brachypus in DT, reef flux?

[TortillaMan]

So I foolishly added some rocks from my refugium that was covered in caleurpa as like an in tank refugium and that was a mistake because my tank is over run with it. I came across this one REEF2REEF post about reef flux completely annihilating the caleurpa and it was the exact type that I have. I do have a small ball of chaeto that’s about a golf ball size. The only issues are that my Fuge’s main type of macro I have in there and the reef flux would probably melt it. Now I am worried because this caluerpa is holding down my PO4 and NO3 so I expect a spike. I know that I can’t turn my skimmer on while treating. Will this reef flux be safe in my fish and corals? My white tail Kole tang wats it but only like 1-4 nibbles a day an at that rate I’ll be dead

I assume Reef Flux will work, but agree it will probably affect your chaeto and ultimately cause nutrient issues. that said, the first alternative that comes to mind are emerald crabs. If you don't already have some, and are willing to take the risk of adding crabs to your tank, they may work. In my experience emeralds love macro algaes.
