what is this and what eats it?

I think i may have gotten this from the coral that i brought back from Mexico. my tank was fine until then. any clue to what it is? or what eats it? it was really out of hand and hairy, until i cut it down and brushed a lot of it off. it is rather strong. here are some pictures of it after i have manually removed as much of it as piossible.

i cannot get a tang, so that wont work.

i use ro water, my tds is 2 right now but is normally 0. i use coralife salt. all of my corals look great, sps are growing fast and are colorful. so i doubt that the phosphate lvl is very high. any clues?
