Help!! Fighting Dino

i have done peroxide before it wont work unless you shut your return pump of so it dont get filtered out then shut your lights off and add 1ml of peroxide per each 10 gallons keep some kind of circulation in your tank pull your sps out if you have any cuz it ant good for them if you got any shrimp they may make it. one of mine died when i did this and one made it wait 4 hours then pull what you can out then get a brine shrimp net and put it where your filtersock woulde be to catch it then wait an hour and then put your sps back in and about 4 weeks you will have no dino left i have been dino free for 6 months now.

 

I have successfully taken out dinoflagellates more than once. For me the solution has always been three days total blackout while running a quality uv steralizer.

 

@FishBrain did you sps do fine during the time of the black out

 

Last weekend I syphoned the rock and surfaces through a 3/4 inch hose, into a filter sock and salvaged the water back into the tank.
In my 125 it took probably 10-15 gallon rounds and 10 filter socks to get most surfaces clean. Have had little growback since. Plan to do one more round tomorrow and then a 3 day blackout. Confident from others posts that this will be a solution rather than a treatment

From what I've read, the Dino's release a toxin in the water when they die off so best to remove as much as possible.

Don't worry about corals. 3 days isn't long enough for the zooxanthellae to die and the photosynthesis is just a supplement, they're filter feeding also.

 

Yes never had a problem with any sps from a blackout.

 

Go to the fabric store or Walmart (if your local one carry fabric) and get a yard of white felt. Excellent filter material
