    Very encouraging video for anyone struggling with algae, since your situation was way worse than most people, and the tank was saved.

    3% of H2O2, 30ml per 50 l of water.
    Sorry friend, I'm not this kind of an ass but the music had almost triggered me a migraine. Had to listen many times to get it.
    Still gave you a like. And I will check your channel.

    I have a mild algae problem and after trying algaecide and bale extract the problem remains. Pond contains approximately 550 gallons of water,it has an adequate pump to circulate the water through a waterfall (which i shut off before pouring the oxygen peroxide) a biological filter, 4 small koi, 4 goldfish and a few water plants (planning to add more). I suspect the small pieces of moss I used to cover the liner that have fallen into the water are supplying nutrients for algae. I watched your video and used 3% normally found at pharmacy at the rate just below the 1/2 cup per each 100 gallons and watched for about an hour but didn't see any bubbling nor improvements in water clarity. Just the other day I checked for nitrite, nitrate and ph levels and they all checked out.What's your take on my situation?
    Thanks

    I've watched one of your videos before this one and, as a new aquarist, enjoy how detailed you can be about your techniques and the reasons behind them. At times, I find it difficult to hear you over the music backing due to a hearing impediment. Keep up the good work and remember the more info the better. Thats why people are likely clicking!!

    • @chrispowell6594
      @chrispowell6594  3 роки тому

      With 3% HP I would use 15ml per 50L to begin.. if everything is fine give it 5 days and do 20Ml per 50L.
      Always have fresh water ready to water change. This is just a precaution but best to have ready
