H2O2 Dosing Aquarium
H2O2 Dosing Aquarium. I dosed two days running, 60ml, midday without removing fish or turning off the filter. Additional steps can be taken by switching off.
It does a good job with algae and parasites. When i tested how long h2o2 lasts in the tank the half life was super short. Hydrogen peroxide (h2o2) is available at most grocery stores, pharmacies, and drug stores.
Since You Are Dealing With An Actual Outbreak, I Would Feel More Confident Sticking With Q15 Minute If At All Possible.
The goal is to kill the algae and make sure it doesn’t continuously come back. I dosed.5oz of h2o2 and orp jumped to 380 shutting down the ozone set to 320, after 8 hours orp dropped to 310 and ozone reactivated. Increased to 1ml per 5 gallons (24ml) every 8 hours, and added overnight dosing (1ml every 15 minutes for 6 hours) if you need help calculating your dosages, @smsreef put together a fantastic spreadsheet that you can download here:
Other Idea Is Dilute Your H2O2 Solution Say 4 To One With Distilled/Ro Water And Dose This Amount 4 Times A Day.

What About For Dosing A Planted Tank > Without Fish.
Dan's advice was to use 5 mls of 3% h2o2 per 40 litres or 38 gallons. After dosing is complete, stir the water using a metal spoon. The fish showed no stress.
Additional Steps Can Be Taken By Switching Off.
Also any h2o2 in the water would react almost instantly with any organics in the water, thus probably completely negating any oxygenating affects. Our discussion here will use “ h2o2” when referring to the 3% concentration that can be utilized for aquarium maintenance and treatment. During this time, redirect flow a few times if.
Just Note, 40 Liters Doesn't Convert To 38 Gallons.
The density of 3% h2o2 is about 1,015g/l. Accepting any losses will have to be accepted. Yes, that's double what's typically used;
