That's a pretty sweet looking sump. Does it just look pretty or is it good design too? Quiet?

Don't get discouraged...my SPS did the same thing when I transferred into my tank. Nutrients too low, all faded out. That's your issue too? I tried everything...Pohl's Xtra is the magic ingredient for me. My buddy is Valonia though, not Bryopsis. Not sure which sucks more.

Thanks it's does work pretty well and was very very quiet until I added the dripping feature with the bio brick, but doesn't bother me at night and my room is very close. As for color yeah it's from low nutrients they were also dipped a few times so think it's a bit of both but I'm feeding lots they will come back. The valonia must be a mod thing pretty sure that wardog guy had a few also. But yeah either are brutal to deal with hoping for the best with the fluconazole.

Here you go bryopsis is turning white apparently you can run the fluconazole in your water for up to 14 days it will also kill hair algae people on r2r forum have reported so I'll give it the full 14 day try. This frag has Green hair algae and bryopsis you can see the bryopsis Is white, Gha still green for now.
this is day 3

Day 4

Mark there's another thread about it on canreef but in short you add the pills to tank I removed skimmer cup others don't. Then wait for the magic to happen, day eight you do a 25% water change bryopsis should be dead by then.
