So, ever since Christy's posts regarding her using sodium hydroxide for pest eradication I've been wanting to try some myself. Today I acquired some from a friend and I have to say: "This Stuff is Awesome!!!" For the first attempt I only used about 5 ml in a syringe. Turned off all the pumps and proceeded to absolutely nuke a patch of Majanos that was bothering my Caulastrea. They pretty much melt on contact. It was so much fun I was giddy. I felt like Darth Vader with his light saber cutting a swath of destruction before me. I can't wait to try it again: Die you Majanos, and Aiptasia, and stupid Palys, and Fugly mushrooms and nuisance algae! Die!
