Works on cloudy green algae

I had serious problems with green algae. This was after a serious problem with algae on the walls. I attached the seaweed to the wall with catfish, but there was so much debris that there was a huge seaweed bloom. I turned off the lights, turned off the food and increased the frequency of water changes and also tried adding a polishing pad to the filter. It was getting worse and worse. That's why I bought this thing. Did a 50% water change. I took out my carbon filter and put 4 drops in the…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Long time

We highly recommend this product! My aquarium was very hazy green and looked horrible and this product cleaned it overnight. I woke up the next morning and everything was clear and looking great - a huge difference. I have some advice for other users. MAKE SURE YOUR FISH DON'T ATTEMPT TO EAT THE DROPS THEY GET! My fish have a fairly regular feeding schedule so every morning when I feed the fish they usually start attacking the surface where I drop the food. When I wanted to apply this…

  • Impressive

Big bottle for the price of a small bottle

I have a serious mineral/calcium problem causing kelp, hair and filamentous algae. It's the only "chemical" that doesn't kill plants. Some of the department stores claim to kill the plants and add copper to the water. Water. However, I've spent hundreds of dollars on serious algae problems, serious, due to the calcium water here. Limescale removers and other treatments are expensive although I have not used lime filtered water (installation of a filtration system). If you remove the calcium…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • So far so good

works perfectly. Just read the label

So many negative reviews got me confused but I have other Tetra products that have always worked great for me so I gave them a try. The first thing that immediately caught my eye is that it is rated for 1200 gallons. Yes. 1200 gallons!. .so just count. I have a 3 gallon acrylic tank so my dose was just a few drops. I had to measure them with a disposable plastic syringe (highly recommend). I also cleaned the tank and added this product to NEW water (along with TETRA Aquasafe water conditioner)…

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Sad hardware

Be very careful when using this product!

Suddenly my water is so green you can't even see the seaweed fish! My aquarium is near a large pane of glass, which unfortunately doesn't help against algae. I couldn't get rid of it so I tried this product. Tetra is generally the BEST brand in the aquatic environment but even if I followed the directions after the water change my tank turned green again and I literally couldn't see my fish 3 days later so I followed the directions and preferred to add more than focused on the tank…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Angry

It works wonders! best in Aquarium Water Treatments

Ignore negative reviews. I have a 55 gallon tank that just keeps getting worse no matter what I do. I do weekly gravel cleaning (I have a few goldfish) and weekly 20-25% water changes, but the water is getting worse and worse. It got to the point where I couldn't even see the thermometer in my back or the fish swimming in my back. The water was a yellowish, greenish and brownish mixture. Something drastic was about to happen so I went online, bought this product, read and reread the…

Pros
  • Feel good
