Algae Identification.

Been brushing this one rock every water change. Taking off the algae. Grows back within the weekly water change. 10g. Doing 3.5g water changes weekly. No other issues with tank. Tanks been up for months, real live rock, fully cycled.

Keep Going. Took me about 3 months of scrubbing. Found that large water changes aids in growth. Then one day it just gave up. Have not had a large infestation in over 6 years

That’s bryprosis. I don’t think scrubbing and waterchanges will take care of that.

My personal opinion: fluconazole. Thats Bryopsis, manual removal and nutrient control usually do not help much.

If i use reef flux, do i do water changes while dosing it? Anyone else use it on a small 10g tank? And how much

9mg/L of fluconazole, no wc for 3 weeks. Removing activated carbon and purigen. If you have a skimmer turn it off for the first 3 days.
