Brightwell Razor & Macroalgae

[MangoSentinels]

Wondering what peoples experience have been using this product. According to Brightwell, Razor is not an algaecide like Vibrant but it is a flocculant. If I dose this product will it kill off my chaeto?

I think it is likely to be an algaecide based on its description and speed of working. That does not mean it is not also a flocculant, and does not necessarily mean that Brightwell knows it is an algaecide.

Used it in an sps nano tank for bubble algae. I pulled the plug on day 6 and did huge water change. Messed up a bunch of acros, killing a few. That stuff is garbage. I should have know better.

From the website description...
"If signs of stress occur, or if macro-algae are affected negatively, reduce or discontinue use as necessary. If symptoms persist, do a partial water change and add carbon."

Seems they anticipate it could harm macroalgae. The hobbyist should anticipate it as well.
