Salty,
Since the tank is still cycling would you leave it be until the nitrogen cycle is complete?

I'd hate to preform the bryopsis treatment only to maybe reboot the cycle.

Thanks, Freddie

Its live rock so it should be good, the water needs to "mature" is all.

It wont. It'll only add some nutrients from die off. Very much a narrow spectrum anti fugal treatment. No apparent effect on bacteria.

Thanks for your incite about the treatment and bacteria.

I've been ghosting a lot of builds. Gotta lot of cat pictures. I guess I need to post our cat to keep up the R2R cat trend... ;Wacky
