Excellent! I just performed the treatment as per specifications to my 150L and 200L fish tanks and it appears to have some magical effects. I've noticed increased pearling from the plants afterwards and all fish are more active. The perscribed dosage was a little on the low side, as not a lot was happening. I then hit the tank after about 30-45 minutes with a syringe with another half dose in a more focused manner and thats when the real magic started. tons of bubbles from the stuff reacting! I think I'm going to make this part of my waterchange routine. Siphon water out, treat the lower volume of water, let it sit and refill. Possibly hit it with a small shot of fresh bacteria, too!

Hey Mark, great video. I have a lot of algae (some BBA) in my tank and I'll be using this method today. One important point of note for your US viewers; The overlay showing the dosage on screen is incorrect. One US gallon is 3.875 litres and not 4.5 litres as quoted. The UK Gallon is 4.54 Litres.

Best ending ever. Thank you so much mark! You have helped me out tremendously over and over again. Wish I could like this video 1,000x, Keep up the great work.

Yes Mark, this is Fantastic stuff for aquarium use. And YES, Handle carefully!!!

Hi guys. I tried this yesterday in my 10 litre tank ( I dosed 2 ml of 3% h2o2) and I woke up this morning and it had completely removed the green hair algea. I'm absolutely amazed about this. Thank you so much, I can't tell you how disheartening it is to have a tank slowly taken over by green hair algae, especially when you're doing everything to prevent it in the first place.

Further to my last comment, I have done my other tank and all is well, except I realised that my RICCIA FLUITANS has dies in both tanks. No other plants or shrimps had an issue but maybe because of the RICCIA FLUITANS plant structure. So I don't recommend this treatment to tanks that contain this plant.

Hi Mark. Great video, thanks for sharing. Couple of questions if I may please: - Why shut off the filter and why for 1 hour? Does the H2O2 harm the bio-filter and is it then gone from the water / safe after 1 hour? - Have you any experience with higher doses and what a safe maximum limit (for neo's) might be? - How often do you treat your tanks with H2O2? Many thanks, James :)

I have a couple of tanks with some trouble, so now I'm shooting them with this treatment.

This video is awesome Mark! Hope all is well. I did a little research on Hydrogen peroxide and found out that it is light sensitive and will break down more quickly when the light are on. I recommend shutting the tank lights off as well during the hour of treatment, not sure if it makes a difference but if the theory is correct its worth a try, plus it may save you from having to do multiple treatments to get the desired effect.

Mark you've done the dose "into the tank method", the "H202 with a diffuser method" and also the "auto doser" - out of the three which is the best/safest and why?

tired doing this over the weekend. and even took out a drift wood, rock, deco etc to spray with H2O2. the beard algae on rock, deco turned purple within hours after rinse and putting back to tank. but the drift wood was a mixed. there were water plants glued to the wood, most of the beaer algae on the plants turned purple, but the algae that was on the wood itself didnt.

I have used this treatment with my fish tanks. Works great to rid the tank of algae. I didn’t have shrimp at the time.

Hey Mark. Great video as always. I used to use h2o2 in my fish tanks for years when treating algae or even bacterial infections. (In larger quantities than you use for shrimp so I assume shrimp are more sensitive to it than fish as my fish never were bothered by it) I now use in all my shrimp tanks once you confirmed safe dosage for shrimp safety. Thanks a lot for your videos. Also I believe it kills a large percentage of micro fauna (limpets, copepods, midge fly larvae) I had midge fly larvae in one tank and while not harmful it is very annoying. Small worm like lines stuck to glass and filter and small flys at the surface sometimes. It killed the midge fly completely.

I also have Fissidens (Phoenix) Moss, Water Wisteria and Dwarf Water Lettuce in this tank.
