bryopsis and mag

[pondy]

I have been fighting the dreaded bryopsis for the last 3 months or so and I am really getting frustrated. I have kept my mag up above 1500 because I have read many articles that state that if you do so the bryopsis will die off. Well I have done this and with no success. I am useing a two part system to keep my alk and calcium where they need to be.
Which mag should I dose to get ride of this bryopsis? Sulfate or chloride? I have been doseing them both in a mixture. If you know how to help me please do. Thanks. Dustin

Its all along the rock work in the back, and along the whole tank, in alot of places.

I had it in my 55 gal, and one took care of all of it in short time. I would say two for your tank size. Maybe someone else will chime in.

Ok do you know if they will reproduce in the tank? Also are there any down sides to getting one? I know that some nudibranchs are very potent if they have an experience with a power head
