Question!

I picked up a frag with some green hair algae on it. I put the zoa in my sup that has no lights. I want to kill off the green hair algae on it but not the zoa ;)

How long can the Zoa go without light so I can kill off the green hair algae.

Thanks!

You can do a 50/50 water and peroxide dip. Let it soak few minutes and scrub the plug or rock it's on with toothbrush

I used the proxied method. Worked wonders. Hair was gone the next day.

Kinda scary but it worked ;)
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
