I have a coralife turbo12 36watt, purchased used off canreef forum.
I manually removed the dinos with aggressive blowing off the rocks and vacuuming the sandbed, my micro fauna was already decimated so I wasn't worried about that.
I pumped the water back into the system through a 5uM sediment filter thus avoiding the water change, I haven't done a WC for over 3 months now.
I got them to where there was only a couple patches forming on the sand bed daily.
I skimmed wet 24 hrs a day and added bacteria supplements daily.
I run the UV 24/7 @ 500 gph, I'm pretty sure I read somewhere NOT to run UV with ozone.
A few days after H2O2 treatment I added ecomatter (critters).
During and after the treatment I have been adding API stresszyme bacteria supplement as it is supposed to coat the fish and help protect them.
I am going to add a pod package after the holidays.
I don't want to say I have won the battle, and jynx myself, but it is looking promising.
