works when you follow the directions
seems to work well, I had been experiencing some algae in my largest aquarium after changing some plants with somebody. Lesson learned, I’ve been able to deal with all other types of allergy but whatever I had was just stubborn and was out competing all of my other plants. I used this as directed and I pretty much have eradicated the problem at this point, I also use this pretty inconsistently I will say so it took multiple attempts of actually trying to dose it appropriately but I got there eventually. There’s no odor, it doesn’t make the water cloudy for the first 24 hours but it’s just doing its job. I’d say it’s a good value for money, and I like having this on deck in my arsenal of aquarium products. It did not harm my fish at all when dosed appropriately.

if I could give 6 stars, I would
I’ve never written a review before but I am so shocked and happy with my purchase. This worked GREAT! my water was so green and I felt like I just had to change out the whole thing, just a few drops of this and in less than 24 hours I have a clear tank.

24 hrs of darkness clear water
At first it didn’t work, water stayed green, did a 50% water change when moving houses and did two applications, at one point keeping all lights off for 24 hrs, worked like a charm, crystal clear water now. A+

Doesn’t work
Doesn’t work in the slightest to prevent or slow algae growth. The other plants in the tank seem to benefit from it. Been using several weeks now following dosing instructions on bottle and still need to scrape algae every couple weeks

Don’t walk. RUN!.
So impressed w this product!. I had added a dosage of 1 teaspoon to a 45 gallon fish tank. 1st picture is how it looked before I added the liquid. I added it all around the filter while the fish weren’t swimming too close to it. I watched them for about an hour to make sure nothing unusual happened w them or their behavior, since I read some reviews about the product killing off their fish :\. 3 hours later, it was obviously clearing up!. It gave that disgusting swamp smell, too & it didn’t linger away from the surface of the tank. But by the morning at 7am, it was much much clearer as shown in the 3rd picture & I didn’t smell that swamp odor anymore. I’ve used other liquids who never did a fraction of what this one has done, & those other brands even required MORE product & cost MORE to do NOTHING!. So idk. It was worth a try & I’ll be keeping a closer eye as I apply more dosages to avoid it building up algae again, & make sure the fishies are ok, too. I’ll come back w updated versions of this review.

Amazing product.
This worked great for my fish tank that had developed green water. I did a 1/2 water change and a three day blackout and the algae didn't clear. I used 1/2 tablespoon of this product and my tank was crystal clear within one hour.

Fantastic, but be careful of how much you use
Works great very quickly. But please be very cautious with the dosage because it can harm your fish if you didn’t use properly. I would even recommend using less than the recommended dosage on the bottle, for example if the bottle says 1/2 tsp i would put 1/4 and give it couple days. I also recommend doing a 20-30% water change after the water clears up. I used it in my 5 gallon tank and I redid the math to know exactly how much i need to put. For 5 gallon tank i used a little under 0.5ml. My water never looked that clear. It works instantly to clear green water. Use only when needed.

Unsure if it works at all on algae
I'm not so sure this is doing anything. It did kill each and every snail I had in the tank. Still getting algae on the glass and plants.
