what ever they sell at local store. Just make sure its new. H2O2 will lose some of "kick" after its been opened for a while.

I dont know about everyone else but i have a kole tang and two naso tang they love hair algae. Any new rocks or frag i put in the tank with hair algae they clear it up fast.

what kind of peroxide do i get if i just wanna take out the rocks and clean them?

You can get 3% from cvs or Walgreens and that would work fine imo

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

Yup. It's what I use

pulled all the rock but 2. scribed with h202 knowing it will kill the live stuff. re did rock work. very simple as i will be upgrading in less than 3 months to a 120. pretty much 95% of algae is gone and remaining looks dead.

Also lowers your phosphates and nitrates because farming the screen here algae on the screen it likes to feed in one area instead of it getting out of control in your tank

And lessons the water changes because it balances out everything
