    Do you have any pictures? If it's really bad, you should try to take out any rocks you can that has it on it and nuke them, or manually remove it. Keep nutrients down as much as possible, so watch what you feed.

    Its definitely caulerpa. My family REALLY likes it, but its getting out of a control. Its very hard to remove by hand. I spent almost an hour the day and got no where. Any suggestions? I think I'm going to add a Hippo tang soon, but I haven't fully decided.
