 Made Our Tank CloudyJan 02, 2012
By Ronald Scholar
We have a new tank that was just hitting its stride in term of cycling. Our ammonia and nitrite levels were at zero, but we had fairly high nitrate and brown algae (diatoms) growing on the fake plants so I figured we would give Algone a try in conjunction with our weekly water changes. It had no effect on the diatoms and made the water very cloudy. The pouches would get covered in a translucent like gooey substance that would flake off into the tank making the water even more cloudy. We tried for several weeks, but we finally stopped using them with today's water change and it is already looking better than our last water change.

 Wow! Crystal clear is right!Apr 13, 2011
By B. Nightingale
My daughter has a 3 gallon freshwater fish tank with 3 fish that we set-up about 4 months ago. I didn't clean it for two weeks and suddenly we had algae. I cleaned the tank but was worried about getting the water clear again and while doing research, I found an ad for Algone. I ordered it from Amazon and put it in with the filter. The water seemed to be getting better, but was still cloudy. Cleaned the tank again 1 week after putting Algone in the filter and replaced it with a new packet since there was algae all over the first one. Changed out about 20% of the water. Next day water was looking better, the day after that it was suddenly really milky looking and we felt like we took a step back & then today, 10 days after adding the Algone to the tank, we turn the light on and the water is completely clear! I am talking sparkling clear. I don't think it's ever been this clear, clear. My daughter was actually a little freaked out and kept asking how the water got so clean, and all I could say was "I don't know, but I am keeping Algone in there from now on!"
Excellent productJan 30, 2012
By Thomas Warner
I kept a very successful planted freshwater aquarium for many years and I feel that my use of Algone contributed greatly to my success. It overcame a number of Algae difficulties, along with weekly partial water changes, and use of rainwater to balance my PH, allowing me to keep it at neutral. I found that the use of chemicals was a bad idea and I will never use them again.
These helped butJun 14, 2011

I had huge algae problem in my 30GAL marine tank with only two fish (a pacific angel and flame hauk) in it. I tried these and I can see a good progress on the algae reduction. However, I have also kept the lights off to starve them in all possible way. Still I can see a little red algae there after following all their instructions for three months. Perhaps I might get rid of this in a few more months of using this.
It works as promised!Feb 16, 2011
By World Traveller
I was skeptical about this product and the ingredients are proprietary so I really had little faith that such a small package in a 30 gallon tank would work. Yet other reviews on various aquarium message boards gave it high marks, so I thought I'd give it a try. I wasn't having a terrible algae problem, but enough so that the water just looked murky. PH and nitrates etc. were within range and I do regular water changes so wasn't sure what would help. Didn't want to add any harsh chemicals. Well, within two days my cichlid tank was crystal clear. The fish are happy and healthy. Can't ask for more!
