Customers say
Customers report that the algae treatment works almost immediately, making tank water crystal clear within hours and delivering noticeable results quickly. Moreover, the product is worth the money and makes tanks look much better, with one customer noting their tank went from opaque green to crystal clear within two days. However, there are mixed experiences with algae removal and fish health – while some say it clears up algae, others report it killed their fish, and while it’s safe for fresh water fish, some mention it’s toxic to fragile tropical fish.

Amazing!
Amazing! My turtles tank gets green right away, this product not only cleared the water, but has maintained it clear for awhile now. Definitely would recommend.

Works but beware might kill your fish..
Price is ok, should be dropped tho. It works well. It really does remove algae. Not so sure itâs that safe for fish tho because some of mines dropped dead after adding even if it was a little. It helps with algae tho.

Works great! Algae does not form as readily with consistent treatment
Works great on our aquarium which we used to have to clean weekly. Now we are back on a normal monthly schedule and he algae never develops in high concentration like it used to

Works good
Works good for my turtle tanks, as long as you keep the filter pumps clean, it keeps the water clean and clear.

Be Careful with smaller tanks!
I will absolutely say that this product does what it claims; it clears up the algae (my five gallon betta tank gets ridiculously green no matter what light sources and how much cleaning I use). However, something to keep in mind if you have a smaller tank is that this product and its included measuring cup– which is really nice, much better than measuring in drops in the top of the cap! — really is set up for larger setups, and this product WILL harm your fish if you overdose.I think the product is great for clearing a fishless tank or if you have a larger (20 gallon or more) setup. If you have a smaller setup, like I do, I would keep a look around for other products.

Works
Works great!! With a tiny amount my 30 gallon is kept pretty much algae free. Itâs a saltwater tank and I only use a few drops after water change.
