wmcbane200 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Just ordered 20. If this works I might cry a little out of happiness. I've been fighting this issue for way to long now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryLimpet Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Don't know much about fluconazole but I just started dosing with Vibrant and my brown hair algae is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Z Reef Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Good to hear Vibrant worked for you. It did nothing for my GHA or byprosis in my frag tank. Dosed it for like 3 months. Keep an eye on your tank, lots of people have cyano outbreaks resulting from it also. Anyone debating ordering flucos should do it while the site is selling them. My past experience with these online pet med sites is they don't stick around long or begin limiting what you can buy. Happened with the last place I bought Interceptor from.

wmcbane200 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Well got my pills in today and did my first dose. I took some pics and a video of my tank so we'll see what it looks like in a week. Skimmers off and so is my GFO/Carbon reactor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paratore Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Did I read that this also works on green hair algae???? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash21 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Curious if any of you have order enough that I could buy 10 capsules? If not I'll have to place an order soon. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjmdh Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I had a bryopsis outbreak and fluconazole did the trick. It took about 7 or 8 doses. I did the recommended 1 capsule per 10 dose for 5 days. There was some reduction in the bryopsis but it was still there just a little lighter. I did a 20% water change and let the tank stabilize for a week. The bryopsis got considerably thinner but was still there. I did three more daily treatments of the recommended dose. After about 3 weeks all of the bryopsis is gone. Not a trace of it. The chaeto in my sump did die but I'm not sure if that was from the AlgaeFix I tried before the fluconazole. It's been over a month since it was totally gone and there has been no resurgence. Unfortunately I didn't take and pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Z Reef Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Nice update! I also had it get rid of byprosis and some hair algae, it was a very small amount though so it only took 2 doses. Great stuff. Didn't have any side effects either. I didn't have any cheato so can't speak to that dying off but I had seen it mentioned in the R2R thread. Tank has been free of algae (aside from the weekly film on the glass) ever since treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoDoze Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Yes, bryopsis sucks. I got a bit of it from a frag, but was able to keep it in check. Soon I got a new tank so it wasn't an issue anymore. But I always feel it's enviable if you have a tank long enough. ...now if there was a cure for apstasia that worked as well...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Z Reef Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Aptaisa is easy, get peppermint shrimp and let them take care of it. Majanos on the other hand are little hell spawns! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
