looks like it.
I'm doing the Kent Tech M treatment (Mg supplement) and will say it works. No sense in in killing the rock as seems stuff would probably grow back plus it's on your sand. Here's a link to another forum on it.

You might want to try a H.Peroxide dip first.
(at least I would before resorting to chucking a rock into the freezer...YIKES! Lots of info (and instructions)on here and many other forums. But basically, tank water in a bowl + Hydrogen peroxide for 3-5 min. Give it a quick swish/shake, then back into the tank.

Have you thought of getting a Sea Hare.
For about $20 they do a great job on hair algae. Tom R

I'm currently battling byropsis as well. Stuff grows sooo fast! I dose regularily with mag, but I'm going to go buy some KENT stuff, see if it works.

Started dosing w/ Kent Tech M magnesium tonight. Before I added it, Magnesium was 1340ppm. I added 100 mL of mag supplement. I'll check it tommorow and see how much adjustment it made. The bottle says 1mL/gal will raise it 18.3 ppm/day. Total tank volume is 100 gallons.
