Great so far
By Vance on Jan 26, 2021
I had terrible brown algae. A tank cleaning worked for a week and it was back. I tried this product and after a second application my tank has been crystal clear. Fish seem to be fine.

Algae cleaner ? ?
By Tapioca on Jan 14, 2021

Unable to use
By Marianne on Aug 4, 2020
I was looking forward to trying this in my tank to help control some of the excess algae, but was unable to use it as I have crustaceans and invertebrates in my tank. I wish the information on the website would have listed this as an issue.

Did not work for me
By Anniede on Apr 23, 2020
I saw no improvement with this. Arizona water is not the greatest and I have some major algae growth at times and this made no difference in treated tanks even after repeating treatments and large water changes. My water comes from a holding tank and may be too complex for this to handle.

Tetra Algae Control Freshwater Aquarium Algaecidde
By Amyluthien on Mar 30, 2020
I used this on a planted aquarium that had an algae problem. Works quite well if used as directed. As a side note, one of the plants I have in that aquarium is a Marimo "Moss" Ball (it's actually a type of algae), it was not negatively effected at all, so this product appears to be safe to use on them as well.

It's working ok
By SMH88 on Dec 5, 2019
It didn't do anything before the third treatment. I'm going to have to treat more than the 3 times to get the results we want. Maybe once is clear it'll work at keeping it that way
