    Bryopsis is a low nutrient pest. Grows with low/zero nitrates and phosphates. In any case, the corals would have to eat.

    I'm going to remove the SPS and sell it off. Any of the rest I can keep without transferring bryopsis to my 55, I'll keep. Then all of the rock and sand will come out of the tank. I'll filter the heck out of the tank, nuke the fuge and the sump, and put rock from my 55 into it. Then I'll go to softies and some LPS. I'll swap the lighting for t5, and get rid of the chiller, calcium reactor and kalk reactor. Keep it simple...

    Maybe I should just come take of your tank for a while. I seem to be able to kill just about anything! Except for aptasia now.

    Sorry to hear about all that SPS being gone but I did the exact same thing except I actually downsized my tank also. Now picked up the TX5 system for the 58 gallon I got from Donnie. Just waiting to pick up some final things I need to in order to get it up and going. Seen some great deals on live rock lately but without anything to put it in at the moment I'd just make it dead rock.

    I may have a couple of pieces of SPS like caps or so but that's about it this time around.

    Any luck with all those snails?
