I've been battling a Cyano breakout and Green Hair algae. AlgaeFix did nothing so I tried Baxter Clean M. I'm one week into
a 2 week treatment and the results have been amazing. Here is a photo of the
First day
And the 7th day

I don't see enough algae on the "before" shot to even worry about getting rid of it.

SW tanks are not suppoose to be pristine glass boxes of water with white pristine rocks. There should be some algae growing somewhere at all times.

If you can't grow algae, you can't grow coral.

If that's the Continuum Aquatics Bacter Clean M, it worked well for me cleaning detritus off rockwork and making the substrate look new. Took about 3 doses over 3 weeks.

My tank is far from pristine and I've got an excess of algae specifically hair algae
