yes. tank can clear that algae patch in no time at all. Tomini tang or any other tang from the zebrasoma genus. I somehow find zebrasoma tangs more like to eat algae than acanthus tangs..

Those are hair algae, plucking it off with only allow those "seedings" to spread all over, apart from getting a tang, rem to lower ur PO4 and ur NO3. The best sources for algae growth. :)

Hmm, have checked my tank on NO3, PO4 and NH3, it seem like my PO4 is about 5, NO3 is about 10 while Ammonia is very high... I guess my chemical filter needs replacing..

Thanks guys for all your advices! Really appreciate it!
