Welcome to 3reef.

Your sally lightfoot might make a meal of your smaller fish as it gets larger.

Buy Kent Tech M and dose until your mag reaches 1600 minimum for your bryopsis. You can safely dose to 2200 ppm. On e of our reefers here actually used a turkey baster and put the dose on a patch of his bryopsis and wiped the patch out in 2 days.

 

ty for the welcome
i have been trying the ROWAphos Phospate Remover its slow but it has been working but if it dosent get it i will definitly try that ty

It seems to be the most effective. Bryopsis seems to need far less nutrients to survive. I read up on this because I am fighting the menace myself. One reefer stated that he put a rock with a little bryopsis in a QT tank with no light including covering the tank and let it go for a couple of weeks. When he looked in the tank the original patch had disappeared but a new one had formed on another spot.

 

Welcome to 3reef, & good luck with the bryopsis, I wish I knew about Kent Tech M.
