I'm using Coralife right now. Made the switch last summer. Previous to that I was using Kent.

Great thread I just forwarded the info to a friend who has been struggling with this issue.

Looks great, glad to hear it worked! I've only used it for Bryopsis and was successful.

When I ran it I left my skimmer running for oxygenation, I just had it overflow back into the sump. I also left my GFO reactor running which I think helped tackle any increased phosphate due to algae die off.

Mike I read up on your thread about your issue before I took the step toward fluc. Appreciate your information and feeback on this too.

[MENTION=122189]malate[/MENTION] is this safe for SPS also, my tank is mostly SPS and battling hair algae also.

Thanks

I would need to take out chaetos in my sump during the treatment?

No, not for fluconazole. In fact having the chaeto may help with the nutrient spike.

Applied a package of 10 and looks like a GHA starting to die off. But few corals not happy and lost colors.
