Boyd Enterprises Chemi-Clean: All-Purpose Cleaner for 2 Grams

tyler haught: Worked way better than Fritz Slime Out, which is what I see suggested a lot. Kills blue, red, and green cyanobacteria from my experience and the cyano does not come back right away like other products I've used. The package contains a very small amount, but a little bit goes a long way. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the fresh or saltwater hobby.

Amazon Customer: I set up a new tank and there were no fish in it and the tank was ridden with red algae. One dose is all it took to clean the tank and rid it of the red algae. it took about 3 days and it was gone.

KRAKRA: PROS:
* Works. As promised. Full stop.

CONS:
* None that I can identify.

USE:
Directions are fine (for me). But perhaps they could redesign them to make more prominent the first step since it appears many people have problems understanding that they need to increase aeration during treatment.

I purchased ChemiClean as part of a bundle of disaster-preparedness supplies.

Phase 1 was managing out-of-control parameters, feeding practices, and manual removal. My parameters weren't fluctuating and were relatively stable during the outbreak period. But that didn't seem to bother the cyano. However, I went to the effort of standard practices of stabilizing water chemistry (all parameters measured within acceptable ranges and held stable), water cleanliness (regular water changes), cut down feeding as well as changing foods. I even manually removed some of the cyanos. I bought vacuums to do this. They didn't work too well due to the gravel size (Caribsea Arag-Alive Special Grade).

After a few weeks, I decided to move to phase 2 and try bacterial supplements. I tried dosing Brightwell Aquatic's Microbacter7 as well as Dr. Tim's Waste-Away. I did...

Yoshi KobayashiYoshi Kobayashi: I have been battling sheets of slimy black organic matter that I thought was algae for years in my 15 gallon column. The bioload is low 3 black skirted tetras, 3 neons and 1 betta and I have been losing bottom feeders like Cory Cats and Snails over and over. I have cleaned the tank, I have changed water, used anti-algae chemicals to no avail. I was doing research on the internet and came to be suspicious that it may not be algae but instead cyanobacteria. After doing further research I found links to this product. I thought at this point, I have nothing to lose and sprung for it. After the product arrived, I was reading the instructions and it said "make sure to increase oxygenation in tank". I was not sure what this meant so I called the number on the box and...."GOT A LIVE PERSON!". He told me that it would be a good idea to get another pump and large airstone and circulate more air into the water as what this product basically does is take the oxygen out of the water. He really knew his stuff and was super friendly. (He recommended I also try some Chemiclean Green once this treatment was done in my filter which I also got and it worked great! Another review) So I rigged up...
