Admiraltian Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 Bro sorry to hear that! I also met with quite similar problem. I stopped water change and change my gfo every week. Meanwhile manually removed free hanging gha and wash filter sock daily. The gha persisted for another 2 weeks but never grow or spread. But by 3rd week gha turned white and died off. No other chemical and reduction.in lighting was done. Of coz, I still lose a few sps. But up till today algae is at bay. Don't give up, as we know this is demoralizing. Sorry to hear about the incident man and thanks also for sharing with us so that we can all learn and avoid similar mistakes. Take it as new opportunities to restock tank. How's the gha now though? This could well also be my last direct effort if it really clears my tank of gha. But probably will wipe up my corals which are now impossible to remove. Thanks for the consolation and advises, bros. the gha did grew back a little but not as fast as before. A bigger problem has developed instead, dinos and bryopsis which I try to ignore since I gonna upgrade soon. A look at how my tank is now. Gonna decom this tank and sell off most of my livestock(corals) and Liverocks.

Admiraltian Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) Managed to sell off all of my corals except for one and also sell off my chevron tang. Now only left ard 5 fishes. Will migrate them to my new tank when it arrives at the end of the mth. The one coral I'll transferring to my new tank, red wagon wheel fungia Took the chance to clean up my sump of Liverocks today. Dip and shake of debris off them and transferred them to my DT. Will post them in my decom sale thread to sell most of them. Will keep a few small pieces for future use. Now a pic of my remaining rocks and the scape that I use to form them up. Cheers!!
