Bryopsis can be a monster...

Is it contained to one or two items or has it spread yet?

There are a lot of threads about using raised magnesium (specifically Kent tech m) levels or peroxide treatment for bryopsis.

I have some growing in my refugium I think... But no where else right now. Kinda weird... Growing on the glass...

I've had before, can get out of control very quickly.
As stated by @AdInfinitum if only a couple spots, take them out immediately, cut them it off the rock, clean and put back.
IF already starting to spread, @Nick James has it right about the Mag level helping to destroy it.
Don't let it get out of control. Mine was so thick at the time it looked like half the live rock had feathers on it.

Best of luck

It started to spread. So raising mag is a good idea but how high to go?

Take mag up to 1700 at 100 ppm per day
