Hi friends.
Ive started my reef tank since last year and the things were going on very well.
But suddenly the worst came to scene(i had surmounted cyano diatom).U know what that was?
Yes thats dino.2 or 3 of my precious reefs and 4 of my fishes and alot of snails and... are gone.
Now after this disaster im determined to defeat this ......problem.
I have searched a lot(darkness,siphon ,h2o2...),but they did not worked.
And now i wanna start a multi attack battle(lol).
Ive took all of the creatures (except some mushrooms and an anemone sticking to the live rocks)out.
Im going to take out all the live rocks out and clean them with fresh water(and spray h2o2 on them).
Then while the live rocks are out siphon the sand bed and clean all of the algae from the tank.
I wanna clean the ceramics and bio balls with fresh water too.
Then put the rocks back and start the water circulation while dosing h2o2.And no lights during a hole week.And i wanna put o3 in it too.
After a week siphon the last and let see any signs of dino.
Letting the tank fot 3 days on and watch the results.
Then if it was suppressed test the parameteres and add the creatures little by little.
The thing remains is that i dont know to do clean the refiugem too or not(does darkness for 1 week heart the macro algaes in ref?).
Any ideas will be appreciated.
I will post photoes and the results.
WISH ME LUCK
 
Arman I don't know how I missed this

Been doing too many tank rip down threads lately, and you are considering doing that and I didn't even see it

You still here man

If not too late would like to see pics your approach sounded good
 
Thank u brandon.
But i just did what i said except the h2o2 cause i just afraided a little of it.
The latest pics are not available cause it is still in darkness.
But old pics are available.

Excellent plan I thought sounded good. A tank rip cleaning is a big job but we have done a few lately

walking the line of safety and being clean is tricky lol let us know how it goes
 
I wish it work.
Its a bout 2 or 3 months not only ive added any thing but also so many of the reefs and all the fishes died.
But theres hope always every where.
 
Hi guys.
I tried my best to remove all of the dino s and i did so:).
It was a one week battle(though its a bout 4 5 months dealing with but my best project was this).
This week was the hardest during my reef life(lol).
During the last two months i decided to little by little remove the dino and it got better.
And when i saw it is getting weak i took my last chance and destroyed it completely.
After the removal my snails got happier and the corals are getting as they were before.
I have to thank any body helped me in this way.
Ill share new pics soon.
