Product Information

Full details

NT Labs Aquarium Algae Gone is designed for freshwater aquarium hobbyists dealing with persistent green water or cloudy conditions caused by waste buildup and algae blooms. The primary benefit of this treatment is its ability to clarify water by flocculating suspended particles, making them easier for your filter to capture and remove, while remaining safe for live aquarium plants. A notable caveat is that while this product clears the water column, it addresses the symptoms of poor water quality, meaning you must still manage the root cause—such as overfeeding or excessive light—to prevent future blooms.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this product safe for my shrimp or snails?

While the product is plant-safe, it is always recommended to monitor sensitive invertebrates closely during any water treatment application.

Can I use this in a saltwater tank?

No, NT Labs Algae Gone is formulated specifically for freshwater tropical and coldwater aquariums.

Does this kill the algae directly?

It does not act as a traditional herbicide; instead, it clumps algae particles together so they can be physically removed by your filter.

How often can I use this treatment?

Follow the instructions on the bottle. If the water does not clear, address underlying issues like lighting and nutrient levels before dosing again.

Will this affect my beneficial bacteria?

When used according to the label instructions, it should not negatively impact the biological filter, though excessive waste removal via the filter requires good maintenance.

Troubleshooting

Water remains cloudy after 48 hours

Check if your filter media is clogged. Clean or replace the filter wool/sponge to ensure it can trap the newly clumped particles.

Fish appear stressed after treatment

Verify that your tank oxygen levels are sufficient and that the correct dose was used. Perform a partial water change immediately.

Algae keeps returning

Assess feeding habits, reduce the duration of tank lighting, and ensure your water change schedule is consistent to remove excess nitrates.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use NT Labs Algae Gone, first ensure your aquarium filter is running and the media is clean enough to capture the particles. Shake the bottle well before measuring your dose based on the total volume of your aquarium. Add the treatment to an area of high water flow, such as near the filter outlet, to ensure even distribution. Avoid overdosing, as excessive chemical additives can stress fish. After the water clears, monitor your ammonia and nitrite levels to ensure the filter remains balanced. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and out of the reach of children.
