I have done this process once before with decent results
I had green mushrooms trying to overtake my tank. I did a large water change, stored the water in my sink(about 15 gallons) and dosed the max amount of Kalk to that water. I then dipped the infested rocks in the solution for a few hours and it melted the shrooms away. I then put the rocks back in the display, and saw not ill effects from it. Would this kill the beneficial bacteria as well?
I want to purge my live rocks before I add them to my new upcoming build. I am currently dealing with higher phosphates. Some of the rock is in my fige. Those rocks have aiptasia in them. I know if will know them out as well. Just curious as to the bacteria.
