I got my sample bottle last weekend. It's a once a week doser. I haven't seen any changes yet but it's a 12 week program and I've only done 1. It's not really a quick fix.

It's probably worth mentioning that this is a diatom producer rather than an algaecide so it doesn't precisely kill algae. The theory behind it (as I understand it) is that the diatoms it produces will out compete nuisance algae (similar to the function of a refugium or ATS) for nutrients and therefore the nuisance algae will die off (so I guess it does kill nuisance algae...indirectly by starving it...). The added benefit is that those diatoms feed plankton which in turn are consumed by the corals in the tank. I'm trying it now, but just like Jason, I have only dosed once so far. Seems like a cool product so far.
