Hello all
Just for info.
I discovered some bryopsis growing in/around my GSP.
The tank is ~1000l, so I don’t want things getting out of hand.
First up, 10 days ago, I pulled out as much as I could with tweezers. Often getting a lot of ‘stem’ below the ‘leaf’ part, so was hopeful I had some of the holdfasts.
Today, patch had doubled in size to maybe 20-30 fronds. Decided to get heavy on it. Given it was around the GSP, which is a fast grower, I decided to pull as much as I could then directly squirt 20mls of 30% H2O2 on and around the patch of bryopsis.
For historical record, I’ll let you all know what happened.
Here is a photo immediately afterwards.
I’d previously waved the GSP to retract polyps.
I’ll take another photo tomorrow to see any collateral damage and then follow-up if it worked.
(Honestly, my tank is nowhere near as blue as this, any hints to get a more reasonable photo from my iPhone?)
