    It has consumed a zoa frag and no tang or snail will touch it.

    I answered my own question by looking on reefcleaner.org. I guess it is considered generic turf algae.... I hate this stuff! I can't pluck it out of my frag...

    I have a similar looking macroalgae on a plug called turtle grass. Look it up, might be the same?
