So I have a recently set up tank (5ish months old) and being new to the hobby, I thought it was diatoms. Well I recently realized that I'm actually fighting dinos and that is why it's been getting so bad.
The tank is SMOTHERED in the dinos. But I don't have coral.
I was told to do a slue of things like dose hydrogen peroxide, turn the lights off for 3 to 5 days, or add a uv sterilizer, feed more often, change filter socks more often. I don't know the strand ID that I have but I was told that when they die they release a toxin.
Thats where my trouble mainly consists. I can't scrub the rock. I can't really reach it to scrub it. But it doesn't come off easily so I can't just siphon it.
I was wondering if dino X would be a viable route. Or would that cause them to die and release the toxin?
My tank has:
2 clowns
1 neon goby
1 sapphire damsel
1 foxface
3 turbo snails
4 cleaner shrimp
2 conch
1 tuxedo urchin
Please help
