I am fighting a algae bloom for a few weeks , I believ my issue is this...dinoflagellates
- have any of you encountered this? I believe this is my bloom I can't get rid of.... keeps coming back and disappears when the lights off. I am going to get some kwalk tomorrow to start running. if so wat did you do to cure it?

levels
sal-1.026
ammonia-0
nitrate-0
nitrite-0
cal-480
kh/alk- 8.0/ 2.3
ph- 7.8
 
so far, no water change until this is complete. keeping a daily level check... day 4 of dosing 1ml to 10 gal ratio of hydrogen peroxide... tank is still doing well, and notice a slight change in this crap fading. also adding sachem reef buffer to get ph to 8.3 while watching out for alk swing......i will post back sunday evening ...
