Visited my LFS discussing using H202 at 1ml per 10gallons for most algae and Cyano issues instead of Vibrant claiming a lot of customers had a lot of livestock die off from using Vibrant. Just curious if anyone experienced positive results from H202 dosing or negative results from Vibrant?
 
I used vibrant in my dt to help with a terrible bubble algae problem. I had good results, but it took a while.
I used peroxide 2x/ day in my qt to fend off a green water problem. Took about 10 days. Qt doesn't have any export but water changes, so i did have an ammonia spike.

Oh wow not bad! What was your dosage with the peroxide?
 
I think 3 to 4 ml in a roughly 20 gallon tank. More than i would dose in a stocked tank, but i wanted to try it and see if it would work.
 
Yes ive used it. Just a few weeks ago i dosed 55ml of 35% h202 into my 120 gallon to kill dinos.

The whole tank got foggy from stuff. Algae cleared from glass, but dinos while 60-75% gone had enough to come back.my fish all big fish, didnt mind it besides the occasional scratch from it.

Corals closed. But none died. It will decimate your pods though. My montipora receeded a little in shaded areas. But not a big deal.
