This one is growing on leaves, on the glass like a staghorn fern, under the base of crypts and on Amazon substrate in clumps. What is it and what eats it please?
Thanks____

looks to me like Cladophora, but i'd wait for others opinions.

That seems right to me as well. Do amano shrimp eat this stuff? So far sae and black molly on order.

 

[DutchMuch]

yea amano's should eat it.
But really that's not the best solution, try to find out what caused this algae to grow anyways.

That looks like an algae you can remove from the tank by cutting off the portion of the plants that have it. I had what looks like that on my bacopa plants, nowhere else, after I increased my light intensity. It liked to grow where I had cut off the upper portions to replant them. I finally gave up on the bacopa and removed it. It grows too fast with the amount of light I have now anyway.
