I have previously brought in several different types of algae into my tanks on plants. Some of these plants, like the tiger val, don't take well to bleaching.
I typically sterilize my plants of snails and snail eggs with kitchen alum, then I soak for 15 minutes in a solution of Jungle Clear Water (potassium permangenate) for bacteria/parasites. Neither of these cover algae.
Since Algae Fix claims to be aquarium plant friendly, would it make sense to quarantine the plants for a week or so and dose the tank with Algae Fix?
