Neomeris Annulata?

@Paris by Night has your tank still been neomeris free? I’m struggling with the manual removal every few weeks approach and it just seems to be getting denser.

I saw a couple pop up recently, however, keep in mind I still haven’t dosed again after my first one in (October?) maybe it was November I forget exactly. But long time still gone. There are couple now but not plague proportions.

I would give it a shot if I were you. I also found, now that my tank is more grown in with coral and I struggle to keep enough nutrients. The algae is outcompeted and just dies.

Well it's been about a year and I've had decent success, but not without losing all my SPS corals. The three photos are before and after. The approach I've used is what many have recommended. I stopped dosing (B-ionic), lowered light intensity dramatically and have tried to maintain higher nutrient levels by feeding more often.

I wanted to follow up one last time because I decided a few weeks ago to completely start over, remove everything, temporarily house the fish and start with new rock and sand. I did not try ReefFlux but that was my next step until I decided to completely start over. This Neomeris can definitely be managed and reduced if not completely controlled but in order to do that it seems you need to make the water parameters like a FOWLR lower light tank.
