I think this it is byropsis check here for sure Feather Hair Algae (Bryopsis sp.)

 

That my kind sir is a dose of Bryopsis plumosa remove that rock as easy as you can then soak it in some bleach and water or just toss it out out all together ..

 

as i understood it algae is good why should i remove this one? can you please explain?

 

+1 to evverything

 

Do you guys think he should try a Phosphate-Remover, like Phosphat-e? that helped me with my hair algae. Also, throw in a little activated carbon in your filter, that helped me to. But it all comes down to getting your gloves on and gettin' in there and ripping it out about twice a week until it just can't grow anymore.

 

is this any type of invert that will help in keeping growth of this type of algae under control?

 

I have to say listen to Tangster on this. Remove that rock or trouble is in your future. If you just tear it out little pieces will go every where and ultimately spread like wild fire.

 

Feather algae sucks

I got feather algae along with a feather duster of all things. It is a plague, but I think I finally got it all. First- get used to pruning. remove every last fragment of it- and I mean all of it! Pull it out, put it in a rag, repeat. I had to weed my tank every 2-3 days and clean out the filter since it enjoyed it as well. It took me about a month, but I think I finally got it all. Have fun.
