All right everyone say hello to my little friend. :-) please allow me to start by saying I am not a fan of using chemicals at all. Heck even my garden is 100% organic I raise my own chickens and hunt a lot of my own food. However sometimes even poison can be a good thing if used wisely and carefully. For quite some time now I have battled Green Spot algae to no avail because even in healthy tanks with bright lighting you're going to get green spot algae on leaves no matter how healthy your plants may be. But for me the real problem started about a month ago when I had a lot going on and so did my wife. We had a brief failure to communicate and she thought I was forgetting to feed my fish LOL. I am not saying anything is her fault at all. But the fish ended up being fed double time everyday for about a week meaning that I was feeding them their usual amount which is slightly too much and my wife was feeding them her usual amount which is a very caring healthy motherly dose of too much. And boom that was a recipe for disaster. In no time I had pea soup for water even though my aquarium is heavily planted and I have a filter big enough for a tank twice its size and a powerful water polisher there was nothing I could do to remedy the green water algae. I was even doing three 75 percent water changes a week to no avail. Then I started seeing hair algae Black Beard algae the Green Spot algae got out of control and the brown algae went crazy. It got so bad that I was to the point of nearly hanging up my hat. I did a lot of research and refused the idea of chemicals. Then the other night I did what I should I have done in the beginning I listened to my wife. We were in Walmart and she pointed this stuff out to me. The main reason I was so scared to use this chemical was the fact that algae is in fact a plant at its lowest form. So it made no sense to me how a chemical could kill one plant while sparing another. I took the chance and still skeptical I dosed my aquarium with half the recommended amount. I then took my seat in front of the Aquarium and watched the white filter pad on my water polisher turn hunter green within 5 minutes. I took the filter out gave it a good wash replaced it and sat back down to see my aquarium turn crystal clear Within 30 minutes. Now completely astonished I approached my wife saying well honey you were right and of course I got the mmm hmmm I told you so bit. LOL then I gave her a big kiss saying well I'm very glad you did. I have held back on Advertising for this product until today because I wanted to make sure none of my plants or fish were affected. And as I had hoped nothing went wrong at all. That is at least with my 20 gallon tank. In my betta tank it caused an ammonia Spike. I believe this is because I used the full recommended dose and the betta tank is very small. It says on the instructions on the bottle and on the website that this should not be used in newly set-up tanks. This is because not only does it kill algae but it can harm the beneficial bacteria in the filter system. So really I should say use it at your own risk and be sure that you do not have any snails or crustaceans including invertebrates in your aquarium. Because it says on their site it will kill them deader than a doornail. with the first dose. I also wouldn't recommend using it at full strength seeing as a half of a dose was like a tactical Warhead for my problem. But this stuff is no joke it decimated all of the Green Spot algae and destroyed the green water algae and it is taking its time on the black beard but it is melting it away and the brown algae threw in the towel the first day. I apologize for being long-winded but I am quite ecstatic about the results of using this product. So thank you for your time and I wish you all the luck and Fortune you can possibly have. :-)
Not even kidding - right before adding it and then the next morning. It works!
My tank developed serious water cloudiness after a routine gravel vacuuming that I had done a million times before without triggering an algae bloom. As the bloom worsened, I tried less light, more/less water changes, new filters and a handful of products claiming to address blooms. For me, nothing made even a slight difference. One day I tried a small bottle of Tetra AlgaeControl hiding on the store shelf. A long story short, within minutes my tank literally went from a green cloud where I couldn't see through to the back of the tank, to a perfectly clear environment. Magic in a bottle. I'm posting a review because the internet is filled with suggestions that didn't work for me and I tried them all. I'm hoping to help others with a viable answer.
someone recommended this product to keep my laser cooling water algae clean. I put a few drops in the bucket every time I change the water and it seems to be working fine.
I love it. My tank is so clean right now. It got rid of the brown algae and green algae. What I did i put all of my fish into my 30 gallon before I put the stuff in there I let it sit for couple of days. This is an example picture what my take before and after. I will definitely buy it again
I have been struggling with algae in my tank for a few months despite several 75% water changes. I randomly happened across this product and yesterday I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did!! My tank is clear and my fish are happy!
This product is a game changer . Within 2 days my tank was cleaner again . I will recommend 100%
I always like this brand I have never had a problem with it and it does help it does do what it says it's supposed to do is it for my turtle tank and I have a red slider she's about 12 years old and never had a problem thank you
This product seems to be working as promised. Using it on 10 gal tank and it has reduced the algae regrowth tremendously.
Killed one of my fish and almost killed the others in the tank. Thankfully I was able to save them in time. It did nothing for the algae
