The biggest and most important aspect of this product is that it is working and I have seen no stress on my coral. I have SPS and LSP coral and all are doing great.

I was having problems with rust/brown algae with my tank. I would have to clean up every 2 days all the algae that was on the sand, rocks and glass. It seemed like no matter how much I cleaned the algae would be back to haunt me. I heard about this product from a friend and read the reviews and decided to give it a shot. I do the recommended dosage every 3 days and since the 1st time I added the product I haven't seen anymore algae. It's going on 5 weeks and no problems! I don't have any corals so I can't comment on that but my fishes and live rocks are not affected at all by the product. IT WORKS!

My brother turned me on to this product. This stuff kills the algae... takes about a week - but does a great job. I travel and have others take care of my tank - when I get back at times my tank is a bit "messed up". This will help me to get it back in shape with a number of good water changes I'm backup and running. The corals have ZERO problem with the stuff (SPS and soft). Good stuff. I know I would like an expert tank - but it takes a lot of time to keep it up - thus this will help.. I think this is the best product on the market for the occasional algae problem...

Green hair algae suddenly appeared and spread like crazy through my reef setup. I thought my parameters were off but that wasn't the case. After a few water changes nothing changed so I decided to use this product. After the first 3 days the algae started growing long white hairs. After the second dose the algae got thicker but tended to unattach from the rocks easier. You definitely have to get in there and remove it manually! One thing to note, this product will not kill your corals but you can tell it agitates them because they don't open up as much. It also drops your PH way low... mine dropped to 7.8 after the first dose. Overall, it works really well.

I have have used it in my 100 gal. Reef, in my R/O collection tank, and in my salt mixing tank when needed. It weakens green varieties so they can be scrubbed away easily. In recommended dose it does not bother red slime at all. At 4 times the recommended dose it cleans up all signs of algae overnight but I would not do this in a tank with inverts or corals. Strong solution is Much better than using fresh water or chlorine products. No rinsing or worry about your creatures.

Have a thirty gal Reef with five fish, three shrimp and several soft corals for just about a year now.
Maintain almost pristine with regular changes, protein skim, and filters, but have been plagued and aggravated with algae, hoping that snails, crabs, etc would be of help.
Finally decided to go "Chemical" and this is the tenth day with absolutely no sign of algae growth and fish and shrimp and entire population happy and almost as happy as I am.
Great product and thanks so much!

i recently upgraded to a 180g display tank with 100g refugium. total water volume about 230g i was fighting hair algae for about 9 months and im not talking a little here and there 125 Lbs of live rock completely covered i scrubbed the rock 2 times prior to algae fix and it came back quickly. this time i scrubbed the rock and dosed algaefix 25ml every 3 days for 3 weeks. and not a trace of hair algea for the last 3 months. the product does not work on red slim algae though thats easy with a little red slime remover. i have recomended this product to everyone. AND IT DID NOT HARM MY MACRO ALGAE IN REFUGIUM.

Waited too long to use this and did not know it even existed.
It seems to be working and the great thing is all the life is fine from huge starfish to king angel....
The price is right and looking forward to thinning the algae out in the weeks to come.
