I'm not running carbon for 12 total days, but my skimmer and everything are back online just the way i had everything before the treatment. Another guy ran the treatment with the skimmer going and carbon and still killed off the bryopsis with it. I'm not sure if it's something that stays in the...

Day 6, nearly any bryopsis left, pics are with and without the filter on the camera.

The upward facing pipe i believe you are talking about acts like a skimmer for the top of the water and gets rid of any surface film, i personally loved that feature.

personally i'd look into the 100 and 1000 reef octo hob skimmers, lower profile, the 100 has the pump in tank, the 1000 has it outside the tank.

What size tank are you putting it on? The pipe is just pvc, it can be cut, i believe i cut mine when i had it on my first tank. Personally i liked my hob reef octopus better.

yup, 5 days, it's all dead, i'm just waiting for it to wither away.

I'm thinking it will be me with no bryopsis for the first time in about 2-3 years, i've had it pretty much since i started this hobby, and have wanted to quit so many times because of it.

I'm not, i'm not touching anything in the tank so that we can get an accurate representation of the meds working. I turned my skimmer back on yesterday to deal with the die off at this point.

None of the livestock has been bothered by it.

:beatdeadhorse5: Day 5, I'm winning.

I have hair algae growing due to the high amount of nutrients going back into the tank, so i doubt it would work for that. cyano as well is still growing a bit in my tank. Bryopsis shares something with fungus on how it creates cholesterol and this med effectively blocks that process. It's a...

Fish Fluconazole 200mg (Fish Flucon) As far as dosing, it comes down to about 20mg per gallon of water, i dosed 3000mg, 15 capsules, into roughly 150g of total water volume. I got that amount from a rough estimate from the dosing i got online, 150mg per 30 liters. Just open the capsules into a...

It is, there's been nothing else to this point that took out bryopsis besides tech m before it changed, at least nothing that was reef safe. Other stuff was hit and miss, so far i know of 4-5 people that have tried this, every one of them has had success. It's like finding an in tank treatment...

Day 4, bryopsis is still dying off.

Take march, i want to be able to make it to a TSM meet this year.

run some carbon, do you have any sea cucumbers or anything like that in the tank?

How big is your tank? personally i don't trust hanna or red sea anymore for anything, accept the hanna po4 tester. Saliftert i've found much more accurate, you might be suprised, i'd order one of their kits for calc and alk if you can and retest. I've never used an orp probe so can't help you there.

I've kept a derasa and a maxima clam in the sand bed under reef breeder leds without issue. Tank was 24 inches deep, leds were about 16 inches above the water line.

Day 3, more turning white and staring to die off, looking very promising at this point.
