Ok, so in conclusion...
The fluconazole did not kill my GHA really at all. I went the full 14 days without a water change and the first 6 without any skimming. I'd read some post that it does kill GHA, some that it doesn't. It certainly did not kill it in my tank at all and I'm guessing the total lack of filtration made it grow even more because when I came back from a 5 day trip it was pretty out of control.
So if you were to ask me if it kills green hair algae, I would have to say no. If you asked if it kill sponge, I'd have to say yes.
Thats what I learned from my $50 14 day run with Flucanazole.
