Sketchy question, but has anyone tried hydrogen peroxide? Saw a YouTube vid where they spot-treated cyano with 3% H2O2. Scared to mess with my torch corals though.

Done it. 1mL per 10g, dripped over cyano patches with the pumps off for 15 mins. Torches were fine, but my Goniopora hated it. High risk, IMO.

My tank's got cyano too. Only had it running since June. Maybe I overfed? Gonna cut back on mysis and see.
