Algae treatment zoas
 
Hey guys,

I found a site that suggested using half tank water and half hydrogen peroxide for a quick 5 min dip for zoas that are starting to be covered in algae. I tried it last night and it worked amazingly. The algae is now almost all gone and the zoas are starting to come back out.

Thought I would share.

how long did you dip for and what type of algae

It's that green algae that likes to spread over new rocks, you know that algae. My zoas were completely covered in it and a 5 min dip and by the next day it was gone and the zoas looked much better.

I believe it is called Green Film Algae.
