Hmmm, i had a case of crypt, my marine tank has been in hypo now (it has had a lower salt level for about 6 weeks but only been in proper hypo for nearly 4 (will be 4 on saturday) i have come across a problem with my gobies since being in hypo they are being seriously bullied by the puffs, and need to get it back up to full marine and get all the rocks back in asap. Do you think that theres a good chance it has been hypo'd long enough to get rid of the cryp? all my rock and crabs and filter media is in a separate tank at full marine levels.
I dont know what to do. i dont have another tank big enough to set up for the gobies to stay in hypo. all fish have looked clear of crypt now for the last 2 weeks
Thank you

Maybe just put up a divider? I made dividers from egg crate which worked really well (assuming your puffers are bigger than 0.5 inches).
