Over the last couple of weeks some macroalge popped up on one of my rocks. It was not bad at first but now it is getting out of control. After doing some research I figure out that it is a Caulerpa species. Specifically the feather and grape variety.

I trim it back as much as possible but this stuff literally grows like a lawn and is back in full force within a few days. Does anyone know what might eat it. My snails and hermits do not seem to touch it. I heard that tangs may eat it but was not sure. As of now my tank only has two clowns in it so my options to add fish are pretty open. Any info would be great. Thank you.
