My tank is over run with Xenia and blue Clove polyp. I am about to pull out all of my rock, pressure wash it and cycle it in the dark The rock with corals will stay in the tank for the treatment. While the rock is cycling I am going to treat the tank with fenzolbenol, (sp?) to kill any remaining Xenia or Blue clove.

The tank is a 180 with three tangs, 2 clowns, several LPS', several SPS', 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 clam and a bunch of blue leg hermits and Astreia snails.

What are your recommendations?

How long does the rock need to stay in the dark so the Xenia and blue clove won't come back?
