I will try to keep this easy and simple.Interesting, how long do the cysts stay in that form? Would multiple blackouts be an option?
I have to add this for people thinking about doing a blackout.
This will NOT kill every last cell as there is a wide range of maturation of cells. This also kills zooxanthellae cells so the tank stress is not worth it.
I'm glad it worked for u! The strain I have weep not die by a blackout...I've personally had success with doing a blackout. I have no clue what type of dinos or honestly any real details. I was still very new to the hobby then and basically followed some directions I received from a seasoned reefer. I let them grow to the extent that the entire back of the glass was covered, I had no clue what they were. Another thing to mention is with the majority of them on the glass (which looked like a brown stringy bubbly shag carpet), manual removal was quite easy and is likely the reason the blackout worked so well.
I did a total blackout for 48 hours, used only actinic lighting for 12 hours, saw some pop back up and did another blackout for 24 more hours. Followed by 12 more hours of actinic light only, then full light and they never returned. I have no doubt this probably wouldn't work in every case, just reporting my own experience.
Also, at the time I don't recall having any SPS, a few LPS, and many softies, but didn't sustain any coral loss.

It comes down to what species of dino's a person is dealing with.Are there any inverts that eat this stuff? Just wondering if I might of had a type of snail or crab attribute to my success... or simply luck?

It's all twilliard! I'm just here for the ride amd doing the bleach myself...I have been adding Bleach @ 3ml twice a day, in my tank for the last 3 days. I lost 2 acros, but as the saying goes only the strong survive. The dinos are finally starting to let go after blowing them off the rocks and a lot are collecting in my filter socks. I have also lowered my time my lights are on. Hopefully a mix of these things will help out. I don't know how many days I am going to do the bleach dosing, but everything is looking great right now, even my RBTA, duncans and Acros. Thank you @twilliard and @domination2580
Yes you are correct. I had a lot going on, still finding the time to complete these tests..."
Ok, so I had a hiccup on the bleach dipping experiment. Accidently introduced dinos into my qt so they all got dinos again. Tonight time will be doing more dips and adding them to a fresh clean tank...will follow up tonight."
See this is what I'm talking about. It's.easy to make errors even when doing controlled tests. Let alone under normal circumstances.
