Bryopsis treatment... works great, almost. I feel like it always comes back. Found it in my sump after a treatment apprx. 6 months ago.

So far I've only seen a single mention of performing a full treatment and then continuing with a significantly reduced concentration thereafter. I just ordered a double dose and I'm jumping on it early, but after the first treatment... experience with a maintenance dose? anyone... or simply follow up with a second phase?

GO! and thanks

I've treated it about 4 times now, always comes back..... Eventually. Not sure a long term dose would good for the coral.

I've just learned to deal with it, and pluck it out when it gets in large "colonies".

I’d definitely consider it, except I use carbon (and see things go downhill, probably from allelopathy) when I don’t. Maybe just treatments every few months?
