I know my original post in this thread was a little off-topic, but I felt I should update it in case anyone using the Search function finds this thread.

The 20-30% Excel solution had adverse effects on most of my Anubias barteri var. 'petite'. Granted, I wasn't really paying attention to the concentration of Excel since I thought any amount wouldn't hurt the practically plastic plants, but one to three leaves on each of my petites suffered complete tissue death on the leaves over time and the dying/dead leaves had to be chopped off.

The solution would still be a fool-proof way to get rid of GSA and BBA on your equipment though, it's just that with plants it's a little riskier.
