I am fighting bryopsis right now. It is demon-spawn, evil incarnate.

My tank is too small for a tang or blenny. I am relying on chemical filtration and water changes. Lots of water changes. I am changing about 20%/day and have been for weeks. The stuff is slowly receding. Naturally my water is "perfect" parameter-wise.

Heavy skimming is essential -- this started when my skimmer stopped working efficiently and nutrients built up in the water. When I replaced the skimmer it went crazy for about a week. By then it was Too Late.
