Man, dino's suck.

What species are you dealing with?
I am dealing with osteropsis and whenever my nutrients go below 10 ppm NO3 and less than 0.05 PO4 I see them reappear slowly on my frag plugs and rocks.

I also noticed I have them living in my sump. I'm planning on investing in a quality UV. I would rather buy a battlebox though.

Not sure what species they are. Waiting on the microscope I ordered today. Should be here Sunday.

They reappear quickly if my nutrients bottom out as well. A co-worker let me borrow her AA green killing machine. Going to set it up tomorrow.

I am noticing a marked improvement over the past 4 days or so. They always seem to come back though. Sure is frustrating.
 
Soo. What everyone's strategy to win? You don't have to tell. I wouldn't.

Keeping parameters stable and equipment clean is my main focus. Not going to change much.

I'm hoping I get a chance to setup my doser this weekend. Had the thing for a month and haven't even opened the box. Adding alk and ca manually, morning and night, sure is getting old.
 
Ok let's see what's in everyone's battle box. I asked for tenuis and a copps calacali. Let him pick the other 2.

Can't wait to see what everyone gets!

I didn't ask for anything in particular or a quantity. It's a complete mystery as far as what I'm getting.
