I must say I was a bit skeptical at first. However, in my last water
change, I dosed with Excel in the large tank (110g). It's been 3 or 4
days (I dosed again yesterday) and the algae does seem to be
declining!!! I know it's too early to tell, but it seems to be working.
I'll report progress as I see it.

OK, I am going to give it a try. Will add ONLY excel for a few weeks and
see what happens.

Please let us know how you like or dislike it. I think it will work for
you, but let us know anyhow ok?

Don't dose with Excel if you are using any kind of CO2. I lost a lot of fish
some time back when I got the bright idea of suplimenting my CO2 with Excel.

I'm not sure what the problem was but it was in part species related. I
lost all my Amicus Splendens as well as some cheaper fish. Every one perked
up with a big water change.

I don't do CO2. However, Seachem states that Excel is not incompatible
with CO2. Perhaps it was something else that killed your fish?

I doubt it, two separate tanks, I saved one of my Amica Splendens with a
water change, snapped right out of it. I suspect CO2 OD.

Fluorish excel does not provide CO2.
