Algae ID, Help, and Sympathy Please!!!!

I seriously doubt you are going to kill the stuff with light's out. I tried and it did not work for me and I did it 7 days. This plant can live much longer and you will kill everything in your tank before it die.

This is not cyano or diatome. If you want to do that, remove all your corals or they will die before that algae.

You can try high magnesium level too.

My yellow tang did not toutch the stuff at all.
