    Here is an interesting article on the use of salicylic acid as a means of controlling algae:

    @Dirk Bellstedt - Prof Dirk, this is the active ingredient in Happy-Life Algin Regular. Also aspirin. So perhaps we should just give the algae infected tanks some headache tablets? Might result in less headache for me too! :bigsmile:
