is mirobial algea clean safe for domestic animals our dogs drink out of the pond
- I wouldn't think so. The label states: "Do not use this product on plants used for food or feed. Do not feed treated plants to livestock or domestic animals".

I need an algea control, for my fountains, that is also safe for my dogs, which drink and swim in the fountains.
- UV Sterilizers are the way to go in ponds/water features where pets have access. http://www.fosterandsmithaquatics.com/pond-supplies/algae-control/pond-uv-sterilizer/ps/c/5163/5255/13749

Using Pond Care Microbial Algae Clean does the pump need to run 24 hrs?
- My pump runs 24/7/365 (except when it dies, lol). I have a 1500 gal Koi pond with 11 7 to 12 inch Koi. If you have a water feature (water fall, fountain, etc) it introduces oxygen into the water, which from my research, is required whenever you use a bacteria-related product, as it will deplete the oxygen in the pond.

My fish tank got infested with pink algae and green algae and the fish are acting lethargic and dying.
Trying to treat betta for Popeye otherwise healthy happy and active. Moved from five to three gallon filtered heated tanks. Feed freeze dried blood worms, daphnia and bug bites by fluval. Also am changing some if not all water every few days. Treated with kanaplex several doses no real improvement. Switzed to metroplex in water treatment as I don't know how food treatment works or how to dose started four doses two days apart and there is some improvement to the eyes. Med is miconidazole.
How to get remove all planaria worms (crawling our aquarium glass in a tiny size )from freshwater tank ?
After using metronidazole 400mg×2 tablets in 75 litre aquarium tank, my two parrot fish has thread like some seeing near gills and genital area ? How to treat them ?
Fish has white fluffy stuff on gills and eyes as well as what looks like fin rot. We’ve lost almost all the fish in our aquarium… we thought ick initially and have dosed Melafix but it doesn’t seem to be working. They won’t eat, they’re either laying on the ground or floating at the top of the tank gasping ): we have a large tank with several peaceful species and now we’re down to just a handful of fish left. We are devastated.
My platy fish have been having white/clear poops. I did 4 treatments of API General Cure (about 3 weeks long) and there is no difference. Now one of my platy fish looks thin and his fins seem off. I'm just not sure where to go from here. I've taken them off of the treatment now as advised by a friend. First attached photo is of questionable fish. Second is of the poop (and a picture of a different healthy platy).
Concerned about what possible skin diseases?? Some of my fish possibly may have. Is it a possibility that some just algae on them. I recently treated the tank with copper sulfate because I believed that fish may have velvet.. however two days later; the tank seems to have more algae in it and the fish don’t seem any better in appearance. I don’t know if they had velvet but thought using that treatment would’ve helped in this situation. But it didn’t so want to know that they have.
I noticed bloat in my flowerhorn about two weeks ago. It was there when I fed him and went away when I didn't. So I treated him with Epsom salt soaked pellets, bloat was present then. Then I noticed white poop so I stopped feeding entirely and added metronidazole 400 to the tank. Didn't work as I only saw white poop, so I added the medication into his food and now I can see brown poop hanging from a clear poop sticking out of his butt. Earlier the poop didn't stick out of his butt. What to do?
Rust colored algae in both of my 10 gallon tanks after switching from gravel to sand substrate. What can I do?
Why is my fish tank cloudy? How can I clear it up? I put some chemical in it but it didn't seem too effective. (Sorry my phones camera is really bad)
How to use metronidazole for various diseases of blood parrot fish ?
Really Need your help! Our turtle tank is all cloudy. Changed water put alges a Really NEED YOUR help. Our turtle Aquarian is all cloudy. Can see the turtle even. Changed water and put in alges cleaner. But this is the 2nd time this has happened. It looks like it would disturb the turtle but seems ok. WHATS HAPPENING?
