Hi all and thank you!
My final is still stored here in the laptop as I build this information.
H2o2 has been found to be harmless to inverts and other bacterial life.
I have not had a chance to study the life of nitrifying bacteria. All testing was based on ammonia level changes. No increase of ammonia was recorded.
A lot of questions have been asked about why or how h2o2 breaks down the proteins of cyanobacteria but is harmless to the nitrifying bacteria.
This comes down to the makeup of the outer layers of the individual cells. H2o2 breaks the bond of cylindrospermum cells. Now in the case of spirulina there are no individual cells to break down hence the huge survival rate against h2o2.
Here is the 2 common types of cyano
This is what h2o2 does to the cell bond
Now a shot of spirulina
Notice the spiral shape hence the name Spirulina
H2o2 is proven beyond a doubt to kill cyano other than Spirulina
