if your going to be curing the rock for a while, why not get some Bergy nudis, or peppermints for the aiptasia, I had a peppermint, and he keep any of it clean. Byropsis ime (which I have had little) was more physical removal, and keeping nuitrients down to a minimum for it to die off.. so I had to cut back feeding. it was only on one frag but it was loaded with it, I thought of dipping it, but was told just to pick off all I could then cut back light and food source til it dies off. worked for me :P

Unfortunately there is just no way I want to risk any of my pests returning in my new setup. And that is just way too much of a gamble.

I have fought with this Byropsis for 2 years! it's just crazy. it's completely gone for a couple months, then it comes back in full force.

Bleach kills all ,and it wont make your kitchen stink.Im moving an i wanted to keep all my live rock so i bleached it all . i soaked it in a bucket with 1/4 bleach for a day and it came out squeaky clean . After a soak and a drying and another soak its perfect .

I think the problem is what works for one person doesn't work for another. If you're looking for a panacea then absolutely killing your rock would be the only option to get rid of unwanted pests.

I think diligence and patience are the keys to whatever solution employed.

Yeah that does sound like a good option. Boiling it stinks like crap.

Anyone heard of the Freshwater dip option?

Bryopsis was actually pretty easy for me to get rid of. First solve your phosphate problem, here is how:

Second, buy a few jugs of Kent Tech M and use them to keep your Magnesium up at 1500ppm until the bryopsis goes away. Thats what worked for me anyways.

I've also used natural control for aptasia and any majano that I've seen have peeled easily off of the hard surface that they were on. A friend of mine shared a trick with me that worked well for him. While cooking some live rock he shined a narrow light onto a spot in the tub where he was keeping his rock. Slowly all of the aptasia and/or majano migrated to the spot of light where he was then able to remove them.
