Fritz Aquatics AFA48008 Algae Clean Out for Aquarium, 8-Ounce, Model: 805000

The product performed as described and at a good price. I would recommend this product.

All of the sudden my tank went crazy green! Turned the light off after adding 6 drops to 10 gallon tank.. walked past tank and it didn't look as dense. Turned on the light to this amazing site!! Beautiful and clear... just crazzzy!!! Amazing stuff🎉

Cleaned up the algae in the fish tank

I use this for my 50 gallon fish tank. When I bought the product, I had a severe algae problem. I cleaned the entire tank and within a few weeks algae was growing all over everything. A few days after the first application, the green algae had turned brown. The problem is under control now. I add the product to the water about twice a week and it seems to be maintaining an algae free or minimum amount of algae. I am satisfied that this product does what it says it does.

When I received this bottle and looked at the directions, it has a caution that says, “Not safe for use with snails, shrimp, clams and other crustaceans, or mollusks.” I have 11 aquariums and they all have snails. I would not have bought this had I known about this warning, but since it is not listed *anywhere* on the product page, I ordered something I cannot use. I posted photos of the back of the bottle, as the seller should have done. I cannot speak to the actual effectiveness of the product, since I am not able to use it, but I took off two stars for incomplete information on the product page, especially since it is vital info that could result in the death of customers’ livestock.I also want to note, in response to some of the reviews I have read here, that it tells you to remove as much of the algae as you can before using the product. People who have a tank full of hair algae cannot expect to put in a capful of this and have the algae all gone the next day. It also cannot solve the original problem that caused the algae in the first place (too many nutrients, too much light). So, I recommend not only to remove whatever algae you can get to, but also do at least a 50% water change and decrease light intensity or duration before beginning use of this product.Finally, when stuff dies in your aquarium, (including algae), it messes up your water quality. It causes ammonia spikes that can absolutely kill some or all of your tank inhabitants. A massive algae die-off is going to cause a shift in chemistry that could kill your fish. (Another reason to remove what you can before adding this product.) Since I wasn’t there, I can’t say for certain, but people who have lost fish in the process of using this product may not have taken into account this issue, and may have inadvertently caused the deaths of their fish by not paying attention to the directions on the bottle or the quality of their water.

This product is amazing. We had a sudden takeover of algae in our tank. It happened when I cleaned the tank. I did a partial water change, changed the filter, and cleaned the glass as I do regularly. I have maintained my aquarium for over 5 years and I have never had a major issue until this cleaning. The day after I cleaned the tank you could not see into the water at all. It was completely green and opaque. I added the Fritz and the tank was crystal clear within 15 minutes. Absolutely amazing I highly recommend this!

This is such a a great product. It has saved my fish many times. I have town water an it instantly takes the chlorine out an it kills the nitrites quickly

I had string algae covering and clumping the roots of my amazon frogbit, so I started using this per dosing/treatment instructions, and it made it worse to the point that I lost my betta and half my white clouds, and had to do a complete re-set on the tank after 2 years if running great...absolutely great! I do use fritzyme 7 to cycle a new tank and love that product by them, but I just can't recommend this one. This tank is now a pygmy cory tank with the 6 white clouds that survived. You know it was bad when white clouds diedEDIT: I now have 15 pygmy corys, a bamboo shrimp, 2 nerites and a peacock gudgeon, and the tank is doing great. FishRfun on YT and see for yourself
