hydrogen peroxide and GHA death

[Rogue951]

no offence but can someone else verify this? =)
cause I REALLY have thick green hair algae issues. the only thing that will remotely touch it are urchins. but they strip the thing down to the rock, uncluding the coraline.

Same here. I'd like to know too.
What about HA on hard corals?

Why don't you take out a small piece of rock and give it a try? that's the only way you will know for sure.

wouldent try it on sps but everything else is probably tough enough to take it ,my corals are all ok today and the gha is not so go and try it for yourself .Some guys are even dosing their tanks with the stuff to kill algea but im not ready to try that yet.

oh side note coraline goes kinda whit after you dip it so if your looking for some way to kill gha and not coraline this probably isint the way.

You can buy it in Superstore for $3.00 or so.

I did try the peroxyde dip with a montipora cap and it survived. Polyps are out today and no bleaching. I can't remember what was the dosage I used but it was just enough to get the fizz effect, not more, left it for 2 minutes.
