Over the long term they also upset the biological balance of the tank. Algae tend to take hold when the tank gets too much light or when nutrients are in surplus. To prevent them, reduce the algae nutrients phosphate (PO4) and nitrate (NO3-), for example with Tetra EasyBalance. Regular use of a dedicated anti-algae agent can also help with prevention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake the bottle well before use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd the liquid directly to the aquarium water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the product away from sunlight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch off the UV clarifier while treating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMake sure the tank is aerated, as aeration is required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActivated carbon filtration reduces the effectiveness of the treatment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere possible, remove dead algae mechanically (for example by hand or with a net or siphon).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDosage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular use: add 5 ml per 20 l of aquarium water every 4 weeks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDosage control: add 5 ml per 10 l of aquarium water.
