I had a problem a few weeks back with this green slime algae starting to take over everything. Nothing would eat it. Believe me i tried evrything. Then i remembered someone talking about Cycle, thats right the cycling bacteria, that it helped them. So i tried it, blew off what i could and poured in a whole bottle.

Now i dont have any scientific proof, but all i know is this stuff was out of control and killing some of my corals. You can see how it started killing my Cyphastrea. It got a lot worse than the before pic showed. It started popping up on dif rocks and spreading just as fast. It was almost like green cyano. So if you have this, give the Cycle a shot, it worked for me. BTW just to make sure i got it all, i poured in another bottle over the next three days.
