Worked!
I had some Bryopsis algae in my reef tank. I turned off my UV and skimmer, dosed the amount it said for my 300g. After a couple days the little bit of hair algae I had on my returns were turning color and dying. Couple more days I could see some of the Bryopsis starting to change. After about a week I turned my skimmer back on just to help with PH and Nitrates from the algae dying off. After maybe 2 weeks it was all gone and no issues what-so-ever with any of my fish, crabs/snails, or corals(SPS,LPS, Anemone, Zoas). Good news is I still have more leftover should I ever need to do it again.

This stuff WORKS.
I've been keeping a reef tank for about 15 years. Recently, admittedly as a result of coral overfeeding, I had a tremendous hair algae outbreak. Because I am reticent to add chemicals and treatments to the tank, I worked on the problem for months using other means. I upgraded my cleaner crew, was doing routine manual removal, doing aggressive water changes, etc. None of this was working.My local shop told me to try this stuff, which they assured me they used in their display tanks and was totally safe. I took their advice and - holy *** - this stuff is amazing. Worked perfectly; one cycle solved the entire problem. I even performed paranoia-driven regular water changes during the process (which is, I think, contrary to the advice on the label) and my hair algae still melted like magic. My corals showed absolutely no sign of irritation and there have been no other ill effects (although, even with the water changes, my phosphates spiked a bit).I highly recommend this product and will, if needed, definitely use it again.

Unbelievable!
I originally bought this and sent it back. It was so expensive and I feared it would just kill my SPS corals. My mother bought some and used it in her tank which was completely inundated with bryopsis and hair algae. It cleaned her tank 90% in 3-4 weeks. I only had a little compared to her and it was staring to get out of hand. My nutrients were ultra low. PO4 .02 and NO3 0.0 (using Hanna checker), but the bryopsis continued to grow on my lower rocks and overflow. I borrowed this from my mom and used as directed. Before the 7th day 99% of my bryopsis and hair algae melted away to nothing. My reef tank looks magnificent and I didn’t loose a single coral or fish. This stuff is worth every penny. I’m amazed. My parameters have creeped up to PO4 0.9 and NO3 2.0 from the algae melting away but every bunt looks good and those numbers are still good. I’ll do a 20% water change at day 14.

It works
It works, but like everyone says it takes time. I couldn't tell much of difference until about 10 days. All in all I waited about 3 weeks. I was dealing with green hair algae and it did not just dissolve into nothing. Even after it was dead I had to scrub the rocks for hours. It does work just don't expect to set back and relax afterwards. You will have to put in some work.

Working on bad GHA outbreak in my nano.
I started the tank about 8 months ago with dry rock (previously used live rock but ended up with vermetid snails and that was the worse). Around 4 months in I started to get GHA and it just kept getting worse. I tried more CUC, picking it out by hand, emerald crab, etc. but nothing helped and picking it out by hand took forever…and it would come right back. After reading other reviews and forums I decided to give this a shot. Dosed last Thursday 1/12 (first pic), removed carbon and skimmer as instructed, and only readded the skimmer this past Wednesday. The last picture was from this Thursday, 1 week in and it is a huge difference. I can’t wait to see what it looks like at the 14 day mark!

Wow it does work! 👏🏼
I took a chance on this stuff after being frustrated with trying so many other methods to eradicate this problem in my tank, and after seeing the good reviews.I'm only 3 weeks in as I'm writing this but it has made a drastic difference!! I didn't see any negative effects so far, all the fish & corals are happier than ever. I used this in 2 tanks and even tried it in freshwater outdoor pond and it works amazing! I'm preparing for dealing with the nutrient spike after the algae die off. Finally a solution that works! 😊👍🏼

Worth every penny! Not a snake oil sold by other companies.
This product is not one of those snake oil products that are on the market. I have bought many products, Lowered nutrients, physical removal and numerous weekly water changes and nothing would get rid of the bryopsis in my 220.I put the recommended dose in my tank and waited. I am on day 10 and it is almost all gone. For the first few days I didn’t see any difference and then started to see bubbles on the bryopsis. By day 7 it started to dies off and had reduced by half.I really should have taken pictures since this stuff works like magic.There hasn’t been any issues with my corals (LPS & SPS) nor with any of the fish.Best money I have spent lately and should have bought it sooner. It was driving me crazy with the fast growth for over 6 months.

Hair Algae
I’ve used this in a 35 gal mixed reef tank for two months as per the directions. It has not harmed any corals, fish or invertebrates. It also has not harmed the hair algae as I was hoping it would.
