Invasive Plant Identification and Help!

Hello everyone! I have recently had this plant growing up towards the top of my tank near my SPS. I tried grabbing it and pulling it out and it grows very fast and nearly impossible to get it all out. Could someone tell me what it is and how to get rid of it? I prefer to use natural methods such as a fish or preferably an invertebrate or cleanup crew member that I could purchase to get rid of it.

 

Thanks for the help, Braden

^ 100% agree.

 

Evil stuff. I recommend the peroxide route to treat it. Much quicker and effective than the Mg route in my experience. I was never able to get a sea hare or lettuce nudi to eat it. Foxface worked well but you need a 30 - 50 gallon tank minimum for even a juvenile.

 

Those look pretty established so it might take some serious work.
