Plant Essential® Black Beard Remover is scientifically formulated to effectively remove Black Beard Algae (BBA) and other nuisance algae from freshwater aquariums. BBA is one of the most prevalent issues in freshwater aquariums, often appearing as dark, bushy growths. If left untreated, BBA can spread rapidly, covering glass surfaces, wood, and plants, which may cause stress and discomfort to the aquarium's inhabitants by blocking light and depleting oxygen levels.

To help mitigate stress and maintain a vibrant and healthy aquarium environment, we recommend providing a balanced array of nutrients. This can be achieved by using our comprehensive range of supplements, including Plant Essential® Bio-Nutrients™, which supplies essential macro and micronutrients, Plant Essential® Bio-Molecules™, which supports vital plant functions, and Plant Essential® Bio-Trace™, which ensures trace elements are available for optimal plant growth.

As your aquarium plants grow stronger and healthier, they will naturally outcompete BBA by absorbing the nutrients that BBA relies on, thereby slowing its growth rate. Plant Essential® Black Beard Remover is a highly effective tool for eliminating BBA, especially when used in conjunction with maintaining healthy water conditions and introducing algae-eating inhabitants like Siamese algae eaters or certain species of snails.

Furthermore, Plant Essential® Black Beard Remover is manufactured using only superior grade raw ingredients, ensuring a safe and potent solution without the harmful inclusion of toxic formaldehyde, which is often found in cheaper alternatives. For best results, please adhere to our carefully devised dosing instructions and avoid overdosing. Proper application will ensure a cleaner, healthier aquatic environment for your freshwater friends.

Suitable for these Freshwater environments:

Planted | Fish Only | Shrimp | Pond

Contents:
Deionized Water, Purified Polyglutaraldehyde

An important recommendation when using any type of algaecide is that extra attention is paid to the aquarium during the treatment process.
This is due to the nature of this method where algae are eradicated, breaking down into nitrogenous and organic molecules which may lower the concentration of oxygen due to being catabolized via bacteria. Additionally, eradicating algae which produces oxygen via photosynthesis, may lead to a decrease in oxygen concentration once it dies. This may have detrimental effects to aquarium inhabitants such as suffocation if adequate oxygen levels are not maintained.

Instructions:
Shaking is not required. Add directly into high water flow. For more accurate dosing, the dosing formula is total volume of aquarium and sump minus all media, rock, ornaments, etc. that occupies volume. This product cannot be used on a dosing pump.

Price is right, no stuffing to pick up, dogs love them and just throw them out after they’re dirty and your dog got the squeaker out.

Best Tennis Balls Ever
Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
Admittedly, I haven't had these for very long, received on Jan 7 and today is Jan 19., 2021, only 12 days. But, we have a terrier mix who hasn't found a tennis ball she couldn't destroy given an hour or two. That is until now. Twelve Days later? She hasn't managed to destroy it at all. We have a puzzle cub that came with a ball inside it. It only took her a couple hours for the ball to rupture at the seam and another 10 minutes to completely destroy it beyond recognition. We put one of these balls in there and here we are over a week later. Not only has she not destroyed the ball but she hasn't been able to get this one out. She looks so silly trying to carry the ball inside the cube. It's hilarious. Anyway, I digress. I would totally recommend this toy for an yone who has a dog that lives to play fetch bit keeps destroying the balls. By the way, Update: Jan 31, 2021 and still going strong. No signs of damage.

Perfect tennis ball size.
Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
Like most doggy balls they dont last as long as real tennis ball, but a real tennis ball can wear down her teeth. Great colors, tho in a few days they are yard colored cuz of the slobber and nature on it. Love the handy mesh bag for keeping put away until we need to get out a new one. My dog loves the no squeaky. To her squeaky is inside toy and too distracting for outdoor play. She really enjoys fetching this ball.
