after reading 28 pages on rc about algaefix and it being safe to use i gave it a shot well i must be the dumbest person hear cause it did not work for me the only thing that it is killing is my fish and snails so far.I have lost 5 fish and i just pulled out one of my clowns that i have had for over 5 years i dont think any thing is going to make it so dont try this at home and learn from my screw ups ------------- out with the large and in with the nano |

I totally agree with Mike. The one good thing to come of this will be the knowledge you have passed onto the rest of us.
Good luck! |

John--Sorry to hear that. You should have given me a call earlier--I just barely logged into the board tongiht If you need any help let me know, I'm just a stone throw away and owe you a couple favors. I can hold fish or anything else if you need me to. ------------- Was that in there yesterday? Casper--WY windier than ? Down to a 20, soon to double or nothing |
