You could have called me. That looks like a Dictyota species a marvelous multi-colored Macroalgae. I would keep it. It does not usually grow fast so it's not a nuisance, but adds color and variety to the reef aquarium. ------------- Reefkeeping Tips, & quick, easy setup tricks: www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9244 Pay it forward - become a paid WMAS member
