For beginners, as I am about a year in. A 2x dose (with some vibrant) fixed my bryopsis/algae issue that was super irritating, no damage to corals or inverts. On a Pico FYI. May half to do a half dose maintenance at some point, I don't have much of a cuc however.

I was a bit skeptical at first of adding reef flux, but holy did it work really well for my hair algae. Before adding it, I was running rowa phos, manually removing, and performing a bunch of water changes but it would go away. Two weeks after doing reef flux, there was 0 hair algae in my tank and it stayed like that for more than a year

Flucon is not an algaecide. It is an antifungal medication used extensively to treat Candida Albicans and other fungal infections in humans and pets. It's mechanism of action in the aquarium is that it interferes with algal cell wall synthesis and thereby slowly kills it. Dr. Craft

@SNBI2A

Жыл бұрын

Agreed, just a bandaid and not great messaging for beginners. GHA doesn't just show up without excess of nutrients due to new rock, poor nutrient export, nutrient input etc. That rock has po4 bound which will release as the po4 in the water decreases and will continue to level out between the two. Try this in my 120g SPS tank and say good bye to a lot of $$. Better aquarium maintenance and proper feeding is key. Also hopefully the dry rock has been cured.
