So, I bought a frag from a local reefer. The frag started growing bryopsis on the polyps so I did a Hydrogen Peroxide dip and it went away. Two weeks later the bryopsis is back and thicker.... About to try Flux RX but has anyone seen this or have any other tips to add? After I did the Hydrogen Peroxide bath the Paly's were pretty small and shed their skin quite a bit. I think Im just being impatient but any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

i have used flux on a pretty bad bryopsis infestation, it got rid of it and i didnt have any issues from using it, this was about 6 months ago and it hasnt showed back up.i would use it again in a second if i needed to.
