Great stuff Andy be sure and turn off skimmer, Once you turn it on skimmer will run like crazy for a few days.

Andy a little trick I learned a couple of years ago. When you turn the skimmer back on if you have room pull the cap off of the cup and get a wet vac and pull the skim off of the top. You will have to replace some saltwater but it speeds the process up bigtime.

The only time I used it, it killed 95% of a good-sized Acropora colony, even though I added an airstone and did the water change just like the directions said. It did a great job of getting rid of the cyano, but losing a good coral wasn't worth it.

I do Chemi Clean twice a year have never lost a coral doing it.

I have used it many times with no I'll affects.


Just forgot how long it takes. Was it hours to do water change or days.

48 hours recommended on water change. 20% but I do 30%. I keep some on hand but like you haven't needed it in years. Your post got me to wondering about mine and expiration dates. I don't see any but I know it is over 2 yrs old.
