WOW!!! Chemiclean works well

Started chemiclean this morning, as I have bad cyano. Its half gone already. Boy this stuff works well.

I hesitated its use, as I haven't used chemicals ever in this tank. But glad I did this time.

It works great for sure. I only had one issue with it, some of my black sponges bleached and nearly died. All other corals and sponges were fine.

I am now trying zeozym, zeoback and coral snow to try to control the cyano because I do have those black sponges and don't want to nuke them with chemiclean.

Chemiclean FTW! Didn't phase anything in my tank other than nuking the cyano.

Doing my 20% water change today, as per directions. Gotta say is stuff kicks butt, not a trace of Cyano. Sand hasn't look this good in a long time.

To my knowledge, chemiclean is an antibiotic (erythromycin). I don't know of any mechanism that would explain why your blastos would be directly affected by chemiclean, or any other antibiotic. I have treated with chemiclean numerous times and my blastos have shown no ill effect.
