My Tank Thread
My Aquarium Showcase
Just posting a rare success story with Dino X. My tank has had LCA Dinos for a long time. I've done many different treatment methods posted around these forums and have had success with some and not so much with others. Mostly my dinos stuck in small patches to sand and didnt bother my corals, but lately went a little haywire and were growing everywhere. I'm about to be starting a new tank by the end of the month and wanted to transfer my corals over but was concerned as I did not want to contaminate the new tank with dinos. Long story short I decided to go the short cut route this time and dose some dino x. I did a four day blackout and 5 doses of dino x. Happy to say the tank is looking dino free! I took samples of sand from multiple locations in the tank and couldnt find a single dino cell in the sand. Nothing seems to be growing back a week later so fingers crossed! The best part is I suffered absolutely no casualties in the tank. My corals all look a lot happier! Am I advocating for this treatment method? Not really, it was lazy and potentially hazardous, but I happened to luck out this time. Just thought I'd share the data.
