Tetra No More Algae Tablets, 8 tablets, Controls Algae in Aquariums

Works great keeps tank clear

I bought this when I had a severe algal bloom that nothing was getting rid of (water changes, environment changes, blocking out light, reducing light, etc). With this as my last option, I purchased because it was cheap and I had nothing left to lose. There's really no... instructions on a proper way to use this aside from the amount. I was worried about just dropping the tablets into my tank (didn't want my fish to peck at them as they fizzed) so I saw reviews saying to take a cup of water from the aquarium, place the tabs in there and let dissolve and then add the water back and that's what I did. After the first week I didn't notice much of a change at all and decided to try another dose once it was safe to. After /another/ week there was still no change and I thought it was a dud. Then slowly but surely I noticed the water getting clearer. The plants not being covered in algae - the decorations a completely different color because for ONCE they weren't coating in a layer of algal slime. Fast forward 3 months later? My tank is still SPOTLESS. There isn't a speck of algae in this tank, the aquarium pebbles are shiny and colorful like they're brand new, my decorations are like brand new. I haven't had to add more tablets or anything. So - despite the fact I thought for sure this was useless, it's actually been a saving grace and the best choice I could have made for my tank. I had five fish (2 dalmatian mollies and 3 skirt tetras, one of which is 7 years old) and not a single one got sick or died or showed any irritation from this product either. If your tank is a mess of algae, give this a shot and be patient.

We have a well established 3.5 year old freshwater 10 gallon fish tank. We didn't have any algae problems until we went away on vacation and I used these feeding tablets. So even though I thoroughly have cleaned the tank every few months, the brownish orangey algae still comes back. I didn't want to use chemicals that could harm the fish but was desperate - who wants to look at a dirty fish tank (note water was clear, this algae would form along walls of tank and on the bottom). Anyway, I have 4 neon tetras, a snail, platy, 2 cory catfish. I did not want them to die so I took the following precautions: removed snail and kept him in a separate cup during the cleaning process, did a 25% water change and removed carbon filter, wiped the sides of the tank with a cloth carefully to remove what I could, got a cup of the tank water, added the tablet, mixed it up and added to the tank. I let this do its work for almost 12 hours (just wanted to be sure it really had a chance to work), added a fresh carbon filter, let that cycle overnight, and then I added my snail back. I monitored the fish for any signs that they were not tolerating the chemicals. They all looked fine throughout. The tank was clear of algae by the time I was done and seems to be getting better every day. This stuff is a miracle and I plan to do this every 2 months or so to keep it up or perhaps as needed if I see it come back. None of my fish were harmed and my fish tank looks great - 5 stars for this stuff!!! You must follow instructions carefully for it to work and for the protection of your fish/snails...

Works pretty good. I buy it monthly.

Muy buena calidad de producto, mantiene los acuarios super limpios de algas

Killed my girl!!! I had her for about 8 years and I loved her like you wouldn't believe. Crazy how she followed me everywhere and would sit in her tank right next to me as I sat in my recliner. She was so full of life and was the most happiest fish! She gave this family so much joy until I tried this garbage after a worker at a family owned well know pet store highly recommended it. I hesitated as I do with everything because I'm extremely cautious especially with change and chemicals that I've never used. I didn't use right away due to the fact that I was still very hesitant. I finally did it weeks later after I purchased it and did everything exactly as prescribed. A couple weeks later she had developed parasites and had turned white and was itchy. She stayed in one spot hidden and wouldn't move. Mind you she is one tough cookie but this stuff was stronger than her this time. Watching her fighting for her life killed me and upset our whole family. Two days later after noticing her acting differently and not looking well she lost her fight. DO NOT KILL YOUR SCALED FAMILY! DON'T USE THIS KILLER! If you struggle with algae use SEACHEM PHOSGUARD! What I would give to have just stuck with that with our stubborn continuous algae (diatoms). Anyhow, past that.. this stuff did absolutely nothing for the algae. It makes your aquarium water cloudy too. Accuclear doesn't ever clear up the cloudiness. I'm wondering now if this is a reason why stores took this off of the shelves. That thought crossed my mind many times and I would normally go with my gut instinct but for some reason I didn't this time. She was a very happy healthy Blood Parrot Cichlid that should still be that today and not dead.

It made the water look beautifully clear of algae, but… My two goldfish almost died! They stopped eating and really moving altogether. After two weeks, I completely changed the water since it was clearly affecting them. They perked up, but then their faces started to get black spots all over them. I showed ChatGPT and asked what was wrong with them and it said they most likely had ammonia burns to their faces from the tablets, and they were now healing. So yes, this product works to eliminate algae, but it will also kill your goldfish.
