Is there a chance that the research is limited bc were calling it by the wrong name? There's a lot out there on:
Leptolyngbya
Leptolyngbyaceae

We posted a method that fixes this invasion within a couple days, very curious to know if you still have it in your tank
I want to reiterate it can be beaten without a reset, we did in the first link. Resets are ok and thorough agreed, but some want in tank fixes, no restart. Lyngbya is easy to control if that is wanted, it can be test modeled and proven on each system before running it.
One benefit of doing a living tank fix of it versus a start over is you learn how to control it in case it comes into the new tank
Ditto. I'm fighting the same thing right now. I've been manually removing it for months and it just comes back with a vengeance every time. Going to break down the tank, peroxide or bleach everything and rebuild at the end of this week.So what's the magic recipe?
How did you identify the organism?Is there a chance that the research is limited bc were calling it by the wrong name? There's a lot out there on:

Full tank shot update pls we want to see how it worked out
We need a complete set of before and after pics to see how recommends worked out. The thread is labeled most comprehensive, we need an update
How did you identify the organism?
Is this Lyngbya?
I've been having a heck of a time with some flavor of nuisance algae/cyano. Several months back, it would mat on my sand bed. I could clean it up, vacuum it away, then it would return within 48 hours. I thought removing the sand bed would help, but this stuff just grown on everything. I can get...www.reef2reef.com
thats best method so far, to not apply it is to keep the invasive mix by choice
there may be less invasive/harsh options, but they're not as fun.
