you are the man!
you are the man!
I have a 180 gallon aquarium that I have set up with live rock and was planning a fish only aquarium. For this reason I have not paid much attention to magnesium and calcium levels. As a result I have operated with depleted levels and have struggled off and on with bryopsis. At one point it became so bad I got rid of everything and set up a freshwater tank.
Since transferring back to a marine tank a year ago and setting up my live rock I started getting hair algae again. I have again tried several solutions with no success. Your article convinced me to give it a try and WOW!!!!! Since boosting the magnesium level to about 1350 the bryopsis is struggling and starting to die off.
I know now this does work and wanted to thank you for your post. People need to understand that setting up a fish only tank does not mean they can ignore the chemical balance, if you do you will not be happy with the results.
Thanks again
