Vibrant and bubble algae

[leewish]

Hi All. I was going to dose vibrant to get rid of some bubble algae. My question is would it be better to follow the dosing on the bottle 1x a week or spread it out with an actual doser/manually dose throughout the week?

Depending on the amount of bubble algae and how dirty/clean your tank is. I had quite a bit in my 65g. Started out doing 2x a week and then wean down to 1x a week after 2 weeks. It takes awhile to get rid of bubble algae, but it does work.

I've read around that after dosing Vibrant, there is a chance of a Dino bloom.. So be careful

I have as well. That is another reason why I thought about using the doser for it versus lump sum dosing it.

look into fluconazole.

that worked on my bryopsis. It didn't do much for my bubble algae. Vibrant worked but it killed all the algae in my tank. I don't even have coralline right now.
