    I have a bunch too....its a love hate thing....In some areas I love it - its cool looking, it flows in the current, etc. From a look perspective I am really happy with it. BUT - it grows everywhere! Once you have it - you have it - and good luck controlling it. I have it in my tank - and like I said, in some areas I love it. To control it - I typically take the rocks out that I want to get it off of (if I can) and I scrub it off with a wire brush, rinse the rock in saltwater really well and put it back in. For spot treatments - I use Kalk paste - its mostly effective, but not as good as scrubbing. I will say if you are using a wire brush to scrub reef rock - make sure you ware goggles and a face mask.
