What types of Algae does this product kill?

 

All except Black Beard algae.

 

It works well for me and it goes a looong way. As stated - not for BBA and it will kill snails and shrimp

 

I have found it doesnt kill BBA and the algae that grows on the glass. I dose once a week as per the instructions. 1 capful for about 220 liters. Also I do have a few snails in my tank and it doesnt kill them either.

 

How well does it kill thread algae?

 

very well. On a 2 foot tank its something like 11 drops every 3 days if I remember correctly. Clean off as much as possible with a toothbrush for maximum success

 

Thread algae is no problem for it. I got it to get rid of thread algae and was very happy with the result

 

so its no good for green spot algae?

 

Not green spot algae - I dont have any of that. Im not sure what its called. Its more like a film of growth rather than an algae. It comes off the glass very easily using one of those magnetic cleaners.

 

Hi does anyone know where I can get this ?
I have tried 5 pet shops and none have stock !

 

try Amazon

 

If you're in dowerglen then wild on pets can at least order for you.

 

If you say it is not safe snails? Do you mean it kills the snails...

If so won't that cause ammonia spikes!

 

Yep apparently..
did ask .. almost two weeks ago ..

 

It does not seem to harm ramshorn snails but the apple snails really hate this stuff

 

Saw some in the Lifestyle Business Park (In Lifestyle Garden Centre), the pet shop's name eludes me - sorry.
