Thank you, I have already read all the treat but Im scared to try bleach in the tank, now trying Vibrant.

Yeah... dummy me ended up with both treatments in my tank at the same time. lol The problem is, I don't know what results are from what product.I've been meaning to ask you how the Dino X was working out for you on the brown slime. Did the Flucon treatment get rid of your gha?
Yeah... dummy me ended up with both treatments in my tank at the same time. lol The problem is, I don't know what results are from what product.
But the end result is the Dinos is not reproducing nearly as fast after removal (I'm 13 days into 21 day treatment) and I'm getting some bits of it floating to the surface.
Not a hint of GHA in the display (although I do have some diatoms or something mixed with the dinos on the sand and ball sponges) and the macros in the fuge are very clean compared to how they use to be. I've been periodically shaking the dead stuff out of it in a bucket of RO and it's staying clean.
A good amount of the stuff that was growing on the walls has died off. I need to scrape off what's left. I'm getting a little bit of red cyano on some of it.
And I haven't had to clean the front window of the fuge in weeks. It was getting covered in brown algae within just a few days before.
That's the good.
The bad, is that a few sps have lost some of their vibrance and growth has slowed.
And my urchins are starting not to look so good. Losing spines.
I'm waiting for the DinoX treatment to be done and then I'll send off a Triton test.
I had also switched from Triton's Core Elements to the new Core7 concentrated stuff and have had a hard time regulating my levels so that may be contributing to the SPS a little.
But, I feel like between the junk growing in the tank, the stuff dieing off in the tank, and the stuff I'm dumping into the tank, and signs like I'm seeing with the urchins is showing me that there is some unhealthy stuff in the water.
I may end up doing a couple large water changes at some point.
Brandon your infestation of gha cleared up better than mine. I am going to suck out what I can in a 5 gal h2o chng tonight and then retreat.I'm on day 9 of dosing 4000mg in my 125 for a horrible gha outbreak. I'm happy to announce my gha is 75% gone at this point. The only gha remaining is all in low light areas or nearly dead if even remaining. I have been doing some scrubbing with a toothbrush. Most of the really white stuff just turns to dust when hit with one. I've slid my light fixture back to see if I can hit the back sides of the rocks which is where most of what's remaining is. My sea hare does not stop eating anymore, I swear it doesn't even sleep anymore. Always out during the day now. I've also been aggressively using peroxide every night which I think is helping.
Prior to dosing fluco
Day 9
Anemone still doing great as well
Definitely excited for the next week to see just how much is gone at this rate I can't see it not being 100% but the light definitely plays a factor in how this medicine works. If it doesn't get it all I have confidence the tank can handle another dose. I think a larger dose is necessary for really bad gha.
lolThe first rule of fluconazole club
I used stuff called Dino X, worked for me.Thank you, I have already read all the treat but Im scared to try bleach in the tank, now trying Vibrant.
[/QUOTE]Where did you get these? I have the same issue and want to give this a try? Thanks in advance.
@NCreefguy - Can we add the links to common places in the first page where fluco can be found in US ? There have been lots of questions around availability of fluco even though they are mentioned somewhere in the previous 116 pages which makes it difficult to track down.
