pico reef pest algae problem challenge

[DrPheel]

Hey Brandon ! I was reading your threads over the various other forums and was able to find this thread with your user name! I'm just about ready to call the battle with po4 over as I was able to get them from 0.40 to 0.19 in 2weeks the last 4 weeks and when my Hanna reagent arrives before the weekend I think that i will be around 0.05 +/- . I got a few more tricks to export the last few traces of it in the system but I was thinking of using the H202 to help get rid of what has been growing on my rock work. Should I post my pictures and results here or is there another thread on RC I can post in ?

So I think I'm going to try this on my 30 gallon. I have been battling what appears to be bryopsis and/or hair algae (almost looks like a cross between the two). I'm using Kent Tech M and just got it up to 2000ppm last Friday but the algae is quite resilient.

My stocking list:
Sunburst Anthias
Sexy Shrimp
Hammer Coral
Acropora frags

The Acropora frags are taking a beating from the Tech M so I'm hoping H202 will kick everything into overdrive.

So I'm assuming I can take the rock out, use a dropper to cover all algae in 3% H202 for 3 minutes, rinse, and place back in the tank. Am I missing out on anything?

I've been doing some in-take spot dispensing testing. Check out the video I posted using a 2:1 epoxy dispensing setup for glycerin and 3% peroxide. that's a 14ga SS dispensing needle for size reference.
