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

wow that is terrible.  I read that same post a little while ago when I was having algae issues and just didn't dare try it.  Now I am glad I didnt, unfortunately you tank had a terrible reaction to it

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.

Down to a 20, soon to double or nothing
