1- The advance in algicides in recent years has been considerable.
2- Next treat the water with a proprietary algicide , following the instructions.
3- I didn't try algicides as I've heard too many horror stories.
4- Alternatively you may be over-using algicides that are copper-based.
5- Use copper-based algicides more sparingly.
6- For example, algicides may lead to dead algae settling out in the filter, or other treatments can kill off bacteria, or lead to an increase in mucus production.
7- Depending on the type of algae there may be some type of algicides that could kill the algae without harming the fish and other sea life, although I would not want to be swimming around in there while they are treating it.
8- Cupric ion is really only useful for external Protozoans of various types (and a dangerous algicide )> (I very much want to purchase a microscope now as I would love to be able to detect any invasive parasite definitively).Ahh!
9- People who spend a great deal of time in swimming pools can become toxic with copper, since the metal is a common algicide .
10- Of course, by increasing lighting levels you may have an outbreak of green algae, although this can be controlled by adding algae-eating fish, increasing the number of plants, or by using an algicide .
