So as the title says I got the stuff in my display and I was wondering if there is anything else I can do? I have lowered my DT

light % and cycle and increased my fuge % and cycle. I am now changing my GFO every 2 weeks, changing my filter socks every two days, water changes every couple of days, manually picking the stuff (not and easy task very fine) and I have sent in an army of Mexican turbos. I dont know what else to do. I have been in this hobby for 10 years I have learned patients is key but it has been three months of battling this stuff I hate chemicals but im about to turn to trying them.
 
Vibrant.

You’ll want to clear out your Refugium though. And i you have weird stuff like bivalves and such they may be impacted.

A lot of folks are also playing with reef flux hd. Not as hars as vibrant seems to be and I think a bit quicker
It’s even killing off bubble alge innhigher doses.
Also will impact the Refugium.
 
do you have an update? curious any of these killed the cotton candy
