Fauna marin algae X help

[David Cher]

if i am using Alage X, i understand that i need to stop using ultra phos, but can i just turn it off and when it is ready , i just turn it back on without throwing away the media ?

 

[Reeferside]

is it running in a reactor? i would just take it out. Are you running it for dinos? if so, take out the carbon too

Algae X was the original name which was later renamed Dino X. So, yes they are the same.

@b3ja We recommend you run a skimmer during the treatment. The skimmer helps export the die off of the Dino and nuisance algae. We have a revised Dino X manual for download here:

Any one can answer this ????

If you let it dry, it will no longer be usable. Why not just keep it soaked in some tank water or FW for the duration of the Dino X treatment?

Why makes you say it is not useable ??? Any reason ??

i understand from the manual that the dosage is every 2 day . i accidentally dose AF np pro and pro bio S last night and today the alage came back today . the last dose was on Sat . can i dose another round tonight ?

 

[Fauna Marin]

It is safe to start the 2nd round if it's been at least 1 week since the end of the 1st round. Only start another round if the algae is very bad.

What do you think ??

That does not look bad. A good clean up crew should handle those diatoms for you.
