The perxoide to stop the BA is a bad idea you need concentrations that will also harm your corals. Nobody has had any luck with that.

Yeah, i can't find any evidence of that. People just say don't do it, which is what I'm sure they said about vodka. Although the corals are losing a bit of colour, I'm not seeing any major harm, and it appears to be working on the BA. Inconclusive results as of yet, but I'm not finished.

Peroxide works wonders, I had a go of dinos in my frag tank and did a 5 day blackout and dosed peroxide during the blackout and for 3 weeks after. I was dosing 2 ml for every 10 gallons each day. I lost a frag of utter chaos and that was all. Had a few lps, couple of sps and softies/zoas in there at the time.

Also a side note a week before I did a 4 day blackout and the dinos returned 2 days after. I believe the peroxide definitely had a role in getting rid of them the second time around.
