Toby Puffer ate the whole thing!

Some of you know that I study dinoflagellates and set up a website to help people ID what pest dino is causing problems in their tank (algaeid.com). Since I set up the website to help people ID their dinos I've been trying to expand it to other pest algae as well.

 

I was very excited therefore when I found a frag of mostly dead goniopora with bryopsis growing on it. I could get some pictures of the bryopsis and nurse the goniopora back to health! score! Both the goniopora and the bryopsis have been doing wonderfully with new growth. Unfortunately, this morning I caught my new toby puffer (~1.5") pecking at the frag and on closer examination the little guy ate ALL my bryopsis!

Can I borrow it to eat my bryopsis? :)

I used to have a huge problem with it in my frag tank but it's manageable now I guess. I still have to pick some off a few frags every couple of days.
