okay i have this pest coral COLONIAL HYDROIDS and i can't get em out of tank any ideas please help there taking over!!!!
 
It is very hard to get rid of colonial hyroids. Your best bet is to cut down on your feeding as this is tha major cause of hyroids. That and larger water changes.
 
Never done it, but I believe you take the rock out and apply the paste, then rinse it maybe and put it back in. Not 100% sure, its a common treatment for aiptasia as well if you can find a thread about that it might say more.
 
no. don't take the rock out. you mix it up thick and put it in a syringe and squirt a glob right on the "infected" area. this is done with the power heads turned off.
i would do small areas every couple days.
