Fluke Tabs one capsule per 100 gallons but it will wipe out all sorties and shrimp.

How can you tell the difference between hydroids and brown polyps? Is there an easy way?
I think I have some hydroids. I'll take pics tomorrow when I get up (it's 4:50 am and I'm still Googling), along with dinos again and a couple of aptasia. Just shoot me now.

I used to have the brown kind on my rocks covering everything. Every so often I'd scrape them off but they go deep into the rocks so it's difficult to control that way. You can try covering/smothering them in epoxy (you can always remove the epoxy later).
Mine started to disappear after I got a potter's angel. I have read somewhere that pygmy angels can sometimes eat them, although I never saw it happen - but something caused them to disappear. So, if a pygmy (dwarf) angel is something you wanted and can fit in your tank and you've just been waiting for the right excuse to get one - here you go.

I had an outbreak in my tank a little while back. Purchased an aiptasia eating filefish (I just like them) and the hydroids went away. I'm not sure if it's related, as i've read they can just "go away" by themselves.
