Dosing peroxide.

[Jmas4]

I have a massive GHA problem in my fowlr. I did not realy do too much about it except siphon it out every week during water change. Now my mom is forcing me to sell the tank. The tank needs to look good so I was thinking of peroxide dosing.

There is no critters except for my fish. No corals. I am planing to do 1 ml per 10 gallons for a week. The only problem is my refugium it has red dragon breath and calpera algae. Will the peroxide kill it?

In theory H2O2 kills canyo. That would be a question for @twilliard

Is there any algae in the refugium because I am worried the peroxide will destroy my refugium algae.

No I don't have a fuge just a sump but if ur selling it why does it matter? Also one of the points of a fuge is so u not get algea in ur display tank so my guess is it's not working on it tank so why wouldn't u wanna get rid of all algea and start fresh? @twilliard would know more about this then prolly anyone but if I think hard enough and steam comes out of my ears I hunk peroxide only attacks certain kind of algeas ie cyno and hair so u might be in the clear. But twillard would know best.

H2o2 will not harm your larger macro algaes or thick cell wall algaes.
It takes substantial amounts of h2o2 for in tank treatments though.
