I beat it in bout 2 months. First while was "fixs". H202 , 72h blCkout, 120h blackout, raised alk to 12, got a dual reactor. In the end I beat them by shear determination. I vacuumed my sand and rocks through a layered poly pad into the sump twice a day for about a month. Kept alk high during this. Every time they grew back a little slower until finally it stopped. Didn't see any sign of them until I created my 30 gallon fuge.After I transferred A layer of sand from my old sump to my new fuge I started getting little streamers with the air bubble parachute off of the tips of my macros. Scared I went right back to siphoning every time I saw a strand it got stuck out. About two to three days of siphoning and it was gone again. Until my first macro clean out. I adgitated some of the sand bed in the process and for the next three days streamers again and siphoning. I asked on the boards And some people suggested that it may lie dormant in the deeper parts of the same bed.So my next macro clean out I stirred the sand up fairly well Sure enough it came back I siphoned and it Took about 4 or 5 days this time but it has not returned
since and I have done multiple clean outs. As with most things in salt I think it just takes determination and not allowing it to get a foothold. That's my experience. On a side note, Holy crap the whole amount of it can cover your tank in 20 to 30 minutes it is absurd how quick this stuff grows
