Wanted to share the some hope.
Bought a Craigslist reef with loads of algae and diatoms and nasties.
Rip cleaning after reading threads on here.
With peroxide scrubbing of rocks (not all at once)
Raising nitrate but expected because I’m working on raising the good bacteria I lost.
Here some pictures of a month of hard work.
before picture and video of after
