anyone know about this?
 
Does anyone else have this growing in their sps tank, and any ideas on what would eat it or how I can get rid of it?

Ditto I had the same problem Olddude then I've got a Naso literatus and now that algae is just a memory.Naso really loves it

Rabbitfish and foxface also love the Dictiyota. When I researched it, it seemed these fish were the surest bet. I had a bad problem with it and my virgatus rabbitfish cleared it out, along with everything else (had some brown wafer algae too etc..).

Pulling it by hand makes it worse, leave it until you get something that eats it or it dies out on its own.

Thanks guys, I'll get on that this week. The stuff spreads like wild fire.
