For bryopsis, you should let the fluco run for 14 days, then you can do a water change, resume skimming, and run carbon.

 

If you end up with some bryopsis left over, you can repeat the two week treatment again after giving the tank a few days to recover.

And congrats on the new job!

 Okay,thank you !!! So tomorrow I will renew the carbon and throw the skimmer back on. Indread the micro bubbles to come back,it took almost 2 months to get them to go away. 

 

 Thanks man,I worked for my family for almost 10 years and just the amount of belittlment and how unappreciative they were just got tiring and disgusting. So time for a new journey in life.

 Whew,its been a long 3 weeks for the tank let me tell you. So since I started my new job I haven't really fed the tank and hadn't done a water change in that whole period and with not changing the carbon after dosing Fluco nor putting my skimmer back on the tank it held up surprisingly well. Yesterday I did a 2.5 gallon water change and fed everything and wow,everything looks amazing again. I deep cleaned like crazy,using a old gift card to scrape the algae off the side and back glass panels,even in the corners,picked all the frags clean of the lovely hair and slime type algae I was getting,changed out the old carbon and gfo,cleaned and put the skimmer back on,cleaned my ATO container. 

 

 Once I get my body used to my schedule I will get back into regular routine and get everything looking good again. I am still going to sell off some frags mainly Acan's and a few Zoa's and limit my stock down some.

Anybody local want to buy any rainbow Acan frags with multiple heads ? Smallest frag is 1 head largest is about 20-25 heads,all are super healthy just got washed out from the leds,all were super rainbow under T5's. Will also trade for some nice Z's and P's or put together a pack with everything for a bomb ass price. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll take pictures.

All the new zoas look great! Bryopsis under control now? 

 

 Thanks buddy. Eh,for thrme most part,I still have to dose Fluco every so often because it comes back a little at a time.

Been a little bit,but the tank is doing good,just chugging along. Got a bunch more new Zoa's no new Acan's or Favia's. Also went back to T5's,all my Acan's lost all their rainbow colors and have turned a drab red.

Tank got down graded to the 2g cube again,been working 60hr 6 day weeks and just havent had the time for water changes of the bigger tank,so this one will only been half gallon water changes on sunday's. 

 

 Traded in a lot of my Acan's this past weekend as well got a nice chunk in store credit. 

 

 Now mainly just bracing for this hurricane and hoping the power doesn't go out.

Thanks,I'm definitely going to try. I'm right near Orlando and the winds are bad yet,maybe 5-10 mph but the rain has been falling steady for about 3-4 hours now. 

 

 They were on their ways on being back to how they used to look. A few more weeks and they would have been colored back up. I have a few more colonies I could trade in,but I will have them cut me a head off first lol. My tank is slowly becoming a Zoa's tank again lol. 

 

So far my Zoa list consists of:

 

 Rasta's

 Halle Berries

 Rainbow Sakura's

 My Clementines 

 Mary Janes

 Spellbiners

 Darth Maul's

 VDM's

 Lunar Eclipse

 Mohawks

 Raptor Rainbow

 TSA Sour Apples

 Pink Bubblegum's

 TSA Rainbow Zoa

 Mardarin's

 King Madia's 

 TSA somethingorother Rainbow 

 WWC Purple Monsters

 Pink Zippers

 Cat Eyes

 Fruit Loops

 Safe Crackers

 Some weird green zoa's

 Random sparkly zoa's

 

 I'll snap some pics when everything isn't so pissed off,I just swtiched everything late last night.

Oh,and I do have a Mini Tide on its way too !!!!!! Pretty happy about that. 

 

 I actually have 2 Glo strips and 1 Planted strip from his Beam series coming too.

 

Our long work weeks may be coming to a end here soon,so I will be able to focus on my tanks more and a special project I have been dying to kick off.

That is a cute little tank. I vote to keep it. 

 Thank you,its here to stay !!! 

 

 Once my schedule slows down,I'm going to redo my rocks,let them cure for about 2-3 weeks in a seperate area and then add them to the tank. 

 

 But,when I have more time again,I want to either do a planted tank or a sps pico tank again in a aquamaxx 5.2 gallon. Seeming all I will need is the tank. I have a rw4,ac50,my diy light once my tide comes in from thatguytom and I have plenty of rock still.

I won't lie...I didn't read the whole 65 pages.  I did want to ask where you managed to pick up so many zoas from?  I'm planning a heavy zoa tank and don't know where to go if I'm looking for 20+ frags at a time?  Any suggestions for a one-stop shop if my LFS is lacking?
