I read this thread last night:
http://ohioreef.com/index.php?topic=20933.new#new and all associated threads from it.
In a last ditch effort to save my tank from being torn down and me quitting the hobby (i'm at that point pretty much now); i'm going togive this treatment a try.
I'm still not sure what my tank has is bryopsis, but this stuff is tenacious and tricky; i've been manually removing it for months and the problem just seems to be getting worse. It is compounded by a bubble algae issue, that was under control and almost completely eliminated, but when the algae started to take over the rocks it gave the bubble algae a nice place to hide and grow and also get completely out of control. So 2 huge issues, one compounding the other. Bubble algae i can handle, i've gotten rid of it before, i could do it again. This green grassy crap is too much.
So, the tank is a 40g breeder with a 20g sump (half filled)
I run a skimmer
My light schedule was 8-6 but i decreased it to 10-5 i believe. I also heightened my lights away from the tank as an added attempt to control the growth of the algae.
I feed my 6 fish once a day on frozen food (LRS food); i was feeding twice but again, trying to put less nutrients into the tank.
I will order the meds today and start the trial as soon as they come in.
If i've got 50g roughly, i'd need to dose...1000 mg.
Here's the extent of the problem
Can anyone tell me if this is actually bryopsis or gha?
