I have bad bryopsis. Could someone who's used it help me. I need to know what to use, how much, and anything else. Thanks
 
I've used it before, done 2 rounds of micro doses. I had no problems. I used 1/6 of the recommended dose.
Here's a thread that should tell you everything you need to know.

Thread 'Micro dose of flucozanole' https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/micro-dose-of-flucozanole.977658/
Interesting. I have a zoa colony/patch, whatever you kids call it these days. Within this area I get 2-3 bryopsis leaves poke through the tight zoa garden. I have been hitting them with 1-2 ml of peroxide right in the tank. They same to die off then pop up in another spot 2-3 weeks later. But, literally just 2,3 or maybe 4 fern like leaves. I get GHA from time to time also. I was flirting with this chemical, but really didn't want to risk anything in the tank. But, this micro dosing is very interesting.

There's always a chance adding chemicals to your tank something could be adversely affected, but this seems like a fairly safe route.
 
Please use a low dose. 1/4 dose has worked for me in the past. Full dose inhibited cal and alk uptake in my reef. That tells me it was effecting my SPS. At a 1/4 dose the effect on uptake was very minimal.

Fluc worked wonders for me in the spots that were exposed to light.

The spots that were in the shade remained, albeit seriously stunted. I plucked and siphoned out as much as i could, and bought a lettuce nudibranch… he ate all of the remaining spots in about a week and a half.

I’ve used it recently with great success . No losses of fish or coral . Use the directions on the box . My bryopsis was completely gone after two and a half weeks . Be patient, run your skimmer without it’s cup or have a airstone running , keep tabs on your parameters , and I added microbactor 7 about every other day . No more bryopsis
!! :cool:
