Alrighty, 13 days after the addition of UV sterilizer + a full cleaning the tank has returned 100% to the original state posted. As I've acquired a larger cube tank and am going through the process of upgrading my stand, pumps, and equipment to accommodate this. I am going to do the peroxide rock treatments.
So, reading back through everything I still have a couple of questions...and some new ones. @brandon429
If I remove rock and treat it with a 3% Hydrogen peroxide spray, do I need to rinse that rock with fresh saltwater outside of the tank prior to placing it back into the tank?
The proper application of peroxide is simply spraying it onto bare rock surfaces correct? Not onto coral or areas not visually infested with algae?
Should i expect a very big spike in levels after killing the algae due to their dieoff in the tank?
Additions of snails will be acquired after the move is completed.
Really wanna do this right as I'm spending a considerable amount to upgrade the system.
