It wasn't until after I started using Rowa Phos that I decided to read up on Rowa vs. BRS HC GFO. I came across quite a few people that reported increased nuisance algae after starting its use and there were reports of a black algae.

Now this black algae is everywhere and it only appeared after I began using Rowa Phos. I wipe the glass far less often and my phoshphates have gone down but this algae is spreading. Corals are all doing fantastic but soon all my rocks will be black with this white fuzzy layer. I've got the BRS HC on the way and like the others who switched I hope to see this algae fade away too.

Anyone else have it or seen it before?

K, here we go.... Use BioPellets!!!!

Lorenzo, I know you love this post.

Your corals may all die off, but everything will be nice and clean.

Been there and wasn't convinced. If the BRS HC fails me I *might* give that another shot you never know!
