Directions & Dosage
Shake well before use. Follow the dosing chart on the product label based on your exact aquarium volume — don't estimate. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Using more than directed will not work faster and can stress or harm fish, shrimp, and beneficial bacteria. When in doubt, dose conservatively and only re-dose as directed on the label.
Important Safety Precautions
- Increase surface agitation, aeration, or air stone output during and for 24–48 hours after treatment. As algae dies off and decomposes, it can temporarily lower dissolved oxygen in the tank.
- Watch fish closely after dosing — gasping at the surface or rapid gill movement can signal low oxygen. Increase aeration immediately if this occurs.
- If you have a heavily stocked tank, poor water circulation, or fish sensitive to water changes, consider treating in stages rather than all at once.
- Use with care in planted and shrimp/invertebrate tanks — always follow label directions, as algae treatments can affect sensitive plants and invertebrates.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
