I did one heavy dose a couple weeks ago and it was enough to weakened the hair algae and bryopsis making it easy for removal, the bubble algae melted till only a few left, but because it dropped down the po4 fast and ****ed off the Lps and softies. I backed completely off the Vibrant and performed 2 30g wc, Po4 rose again and I had started fluco meds because the bryopsis was still around and getting stronger, now that's completely gone after a recommended dose of 20mg/gal. Bubble is slowly infesting again, so this time I just dosed about 3ml per 100g to see how the corals react, if they are ok I will dose another 3ml in 3 days and continue to follow that dosage as I don't want to shock my non sps corals.
Did anyone notice that when the bubble melted there was some sort of green slime engulfing certain areas of the remaining bubble? |
on my 2nd week, 2nd dose. 10ml in 60 gallons of water. each time.
No noticeable difference yet. =( |
It can take time... Do you know what kind of algae you have?
here's the approx dosing on R2R thread for certain algaes "Cloudy/hazy Water- 1 dose Diatoms - 1-2 doses Cyanobacteria - (Yes, it will outcompete another bacteria) 1-5 doses Dinoflagellates - 2-5 doses Bubble algae - 3-8 doses Hair Algae - 3-5 doses (depending on species of hair and how bad the infestation is) Turf Algae - 8-20 doses ( again, depending on species and how bad the infestation is) Bryopsis - 6-30 doses ( again, depending on species and how bad the infestation is)" |
So J &L is selling this stuff now. For the people who used it do you recommend giving it a try?
|
I ordered some waiting for it to come in. Glad theirs a thread for this following and pumped to hear positive reviews on the product.

:pop2:

any new users since J&L started stocking? Reviews?

Been using this 2 weeks ago, 2 doses so far. It really does work! My Bryposis that was growing on 3 new pc's of dry rock that started a bloom after 2 months is completely gone after those 2 doses. So far im convinced this stuff really works! Also some turf algae that was growing on some of the liverock ive had in here for some time, has also started reseeding back.
Waiting for bubble algae to take a hit next....tomorrow il be dosing the 3rd dose as it will be week 3 for me. If you haven't already grab some of this stuff its amazing, but be sure to do water changes as I heard others had cyano outbreaks, also do not overdose!! Patience it will work just takes time for the bacteria to overpopulate the bad stuff in your water that's feeding problematic algae! Also everytime ive dosed ive also added some NOPOX on the lowest dosage possible for my tank for that product, was thinking the vibrant could maybe release some nitrates from the dying algae. So just to be sure I added NOPOX to compensate. So far so good! if you haven't yet. BUY THIS!! |
