  1. So I saw a FB post from a fella who used API Algaefix in his planted tank, and said it did wonders without killing the plants.  It being FB, naturally some controversey ensued and the post dropped off the map before I could form an informed opinion.  

    Meanwhile, curiosity got the better of me and I tried it in a planted nursery tank.  By golly, two doses later, all the hair algae is gone!  No noticeable side-effects on fish or plants.  Most of the green dust algae is still present, which I actually like.  

    So what has your experience been?   And is there any reason not to use it for occasional hair algae suppression?  Other than algae, is it detremental to any plant or animal species?  

    I'm especially concerned about my valisnaria, as I accidentally killed off a bunch with a hydrogen peroxide treatment earlier this year.    And I don't want to accidentally harm my fish.   

    TIA!
