Eradicating a disease is always more complicated than preventing it with forethought and planning. A UV sterilizer would help but I'm afraid that's not quick enough once the disease set in as you indicate. The UV is more a preventive measure. I've used a diatom filter very succesfully in the past. I keep the bigger diatom filter on hand ready to put in use for several reasons. It's great for clearing cloudy water on initial set up with aragonite sand and in cases such as you guys are experiencing. It works great, worth the money. Other than that I can't offer anything but sympathy.

Hope this helps.
