Man, I want a maxima but can't catch the coral beauty :( .... I'm jealous!
 
Day 2 No changes yet. Corals don't seem to mind the treatment so far. Stoked to see what happens

First post on Reef2Reef. Long time user of Reef Central. Read through this thread last night and was able to finally ID the algae in my tank as Bryopsis. Naturally I ordered 30 pills and will start my journey this Thursday. Oh, this isn't my first trip down experimental lane. Bayer for dipping and an entire in tank treatment for Red Bugs with Dr. G's Coral dip and now hoping this Fluconazole will cure my tank of Bryopsis.

Thank you to all the trailblazers in this hobby who solve some of the most annoying pests in this hobby.

Welcome to R2R!
Do you have any pics?
 
The YouTubers are the ones that really kill me... as many of them are now over sensationalizing it to grab attention and subscribers as if it were their find! Granted my videos are not perfect but I do comment that at the time that I was doing the videos and it was all experimental. Then I updated comments and such as to what became fact. I also stated where the information came from in the first place LOL. I'm pretty sure I'm the first one that did a video on the process. Personally I could care less about having subscribers... I have very little time as it is. R2R and the rest of my life have my time [emoji12]
Here's an example (and I know him... sigh) I'm afraid of people going out and getting the meds without enough knowledge.

Oh my haha!!!!. All joked aside, accidently found? Im sure the person knew what they were doing before comming up with a treatment.

Hes a good dude, he was one of the people i was speaking with last night about it. I dont think he believed im the one that actually shared this info with r2r, nor i dont think he believed fluconazole went up 20% on one of those fish med websites because of this treatment lol!

He knows the info, should tell him to put it in his video description so noone gets confused
