this was the case for me as well.
i loved reading about how my husbandry must be reckless, my bioload is too big or i feed too much. in fact, i am completely strict with my fish/coral keeping and take the hobby seriously... after all this stuff isn't cheap but sure can appear so when your tank is swarmed with problem algae.
i'm 9 days into treatment and am optimistic that it is going to work out fine from the progress to this point. pretty amazing stuff really.
