I've lost a big stylo to Brown jelly and it is mean stuff. I'd vote sponge if it's not bothering anything. I have similar white slimy ones but they hate light and only grow under rocks in the shade.

Welcome! Excited to hear your insights!

I am not seeing a price tag. That is maybe a bad sign lol.

I'm sure there'll be more but put me down for some sunny d's. I had a good colony but accidentally threw the rock in my saltwater res and didn't notice until they were already gone. I'm always after bright stuff so thank you for the offer, I will take you up on it.

Plus I just love seeing tanks.

Very nice photography! Your tanks are amazing and I'd love to root through there for frags.

That nem tank is really neat. Do you do anything with the space under the racks? This thread has been fun to follow, thanks for sharing!

Deep sand bed maintenance, stand/hood construction, pvc plumbing.

This thread is scary.  I bought a $6k hvac unit for my house before setting up my current tanks.  Our house got intolerably hot before the upgrade and made this hobby completely impossible.  

Each pack is an even $100........I have some frags of JF Burning Banana that can be added on for $25

This is the encrusting monti, yes?

Absolutely incredible.

I use glass canopies on mine because I also hate evaporation, but I have lost a handful of jumpers from leaving the top open on accident.

The rimless aesthetic is pretty but even as a noob it makes me cringe.

All that said I have wooden canopies and standard size tanks. I'd jump on this is a second of I couldn't find the glass ones.

Oh dur. Lol defiantly wasn't trying to imply it was unhappy. That colony is a beast. That makes sense that the shrimp would be out at night.

But... but I was just there. Lol see ya soon!

edit: Thanks guys! Picked up a hot pink gonio frag, 2 banggai's (to make 3 total in my display) and a "burgandy" linkia. I don't know that I've ever seen it so packed in there.

That is crazy cool.  What's up with your euphyllia on the left there?  Did it just get run over?

@Ninjabeaver - I have had a pair in my 75g for over a year and a half and have never noticed them spawning.  Any pics?  Admittedly I haven't been looking. 

Why the heck have I not come to this store yet?! Little drive from Salem but obviously worth it. That fifth picture (favia?) is amazing!

I'm going to need your address as well.

Really nice! I wish a new grow would start so I could try.

The pipes in your neighborhood and home can add ppm as well. Namely heavy metals. This is bad. Use a filter.

Honestly I think planting large macro colonies in the same tank was the best thing.

Also tying it to ~100 gallon established system probably isn't hurting. I might add this crap popped up during the "green phase" of cycling this frag tank. Little GHA popped up and died, now the briopsis is taking its turn.

Too bad it's underwater or I'd kill it with fire from orbit.

I tied a 40b frag tank into my main system somewhat recently and it started growing briopsis. This is just in the frag tank. Though both tanks share a sump, the returns both go through filter socks. My point is that there isn't one speck of this stuff in my display. It got on my nerves so I did a few things.

1: Got myself a bottle of Kents Tech M Magnesium supplement. I guess it has something that briopsis doesn't like. Definitely a noticeable slowing in growth.

2: Moved three or four pretty macros from the sump and planted them in my frag tank. The hope is it will out compete it.

3: Manual removal of as much of it as possible.

4: Put a Kole Eye Tang in the frag tank. He's little and only him and a pair of fancy clowns live in there. Oh and a flagfin goby with his candy cane pistol shrimp.

So far I think I'm winning pretty quickly but I'm keeping a close eye on this. What have you done to successfully rid yourself of this pest?
