Dr Tank Staghorn Algae Remover

Dr. Tank Staghorn Algae Remover is a specialized treatment formulated to effectively eliminate Staghorn algae (Compsopogon spp.) in freshwater aquariums. Staghorn algae are filamentous red algae that appear as bushy, dark green or grayish strands resembling deer antlers, often attaching to plant leaves, decorations, and hardscape.


🌿 Key Features

  • Targeted Action: Specifically designed to combat Staghorn algae, breaking it down and facilitating its removal from the aquarium.
  • Safe for Aquatic Life: When used as directed, it is safe for fish, shrimp, snails, and aquatic plants, ensuring the overall health of the aquarium ecosystem.
  • Easy Application: The treatment can be applied directly to affected areas without the need to remove fish or plants during the process.
  • Prevents Regrowth: Addresses underlying causes of algae growth, such as excess nutrients and poor water circulation, to prevent future infestations.

🧪 Dosage & Application

  1. Preparation: Dissolve one tablet in 20ml of warm tap water; allow it to dissolve completely (approximately 1 hour).
  2. Application: Pause the aquarium filter for 30 minutes. Using a dropper or syringe, apply 1–2ml of the solution directly onto the affected areas of the algae.
  3. Observation: The algae will begin to lighten in color, indicating its death.
  4. Repeat Treatment: If necessary, repeat the treatment daily until the algae is eliminated.
  5. Water Change: If treatment extends beyond five consecutive days, perform a 50% water change before continuing.

⚠️ Important Considerations

  • Monitor Water Parameters: Regularly check nutrient levels, especially phosphates and nitrates, to prevent algae resurgence.
  • Maintain Proper Lighting: Ensure appropriate lighting duration and intensity to discourage algae growth.
  • Enhance Water Circulation: Improve water flow to prevent stagnant areas where algae can thrive.
  • Avoid Overdosing: Adhere strictly to dosage guidelines to maintain the safety of all tank inhabitants.

By integrating Dr. Tank Staghorn Algae Remover into your regular aquarium maintenance routine and addressing underlying causes of algae growth, you can effectively manage and prevent Staghorn algae infestations, ensuring a healthy and vibrant aquatic environment.
