If you do have or did have GHA, do you prefer a natural way of removing it with a clean up crew and manual removal by hand and suchion.
Or do you prefer to use chemicals?

Use GFO, inside its own reactor to keep phosphates inline.

For me it depends on how bad it gets, if it's really bad I'll use a combination of natural (Extra CUC) and chemical (Hydrogen Peroxide). Otherwise I'll use my CUC to battle it alone. However this is only after figuring out what caused the GHA to take over in the first place and coming up with a plan to solve that issue.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
