Hey Kenny display is 90 and sump 35 but only over half full, I estimated 110 of water but it could be less as the rock and corals are stuffed in pretty good. I dosed 1 blister pack in total (10 pills over 3 days) which is suppose to be good for about 100g of water so maybe alittle under....or over.

Im definitely not a scientist or doctor but suppose in theory it's possible to create a strain resistant to this medication if using too little. Kind of how vaccines are "supposed" to work.
As far as manual removal first, it isn't necessary but probably won't hurt.
No skimmer here, I don't even have one in the tank.
Glad you're Cyano is gone, now onto the Bryopsis. If the remainder isn't looking healthy than it probably is bryopsis and just give it a bit longer. If it's not going away then it could be another type of algae mixed in?
I've yet to see anyone mention that it didn't take care of all the Bryopsis, but have seen someone say they were Bryopsis free after 18days

Bryant I basically couldn't add numbers and aired to the side of caution when originally dosing the fluco, it was roughly 5mg/gal initially and then added the remainder of 15mg/gal 3 days later. I will say that yesterday about 32 hrs after initial dose of the 15mg the bryopsis is completely gone, super amazed kinda like I was amazed when bubble algae started to melt. Now if we can find a wonder drug for aptaisia we are almost all covered as far as pests are concerned! |
