Excel is a sterilising agent, and that's supposed to kill bacteria.
Excel owns BBA. But against BGA it seems powerless. haha.At least for my case.

brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.

Your plants are floating, maybe the Excel was able to be in contact with the BGA in concentrated form for a longer time, thus killing them. I tried it on the gravel line and Excel seems to defuse into the water coloumn quickly upon injection, perhaps too quickly to kill BGA.
Sorry to OT abit... may i know where did u get the wooden rack from? is it a normal cabinet or specially for tank? I'm still lookng for an inexpensive wooden rack t place my 1.5ft tank... currently on a Ikea coffee table... i don't know how long it can stand before it crashes downOriginally Posted by |squee|
Well I did it, I changed 50% of water and dosed 1/4 teaspoon KNO3 and covered the tank with trash bags taped together. Hopefully no stray ray of light hits inside.
I'm praying that it all dies off and I can enjoy my tank. That's the reason I went non-CO2... will check back 4 days later. That'll be on Sunday.
sorry for the OT again...
That stand was DIYed from wooden planks bought at Ikea. Done by my father
