I use "liquid carbon" (a.k.a. glutaraldehyde) for algae spot treatment and really like it for that purpose - I'm happier using glutaraldehyde than I would be with something more immediately potent like peroxide. Mostly I've used EasyCarbo which I like because it has a certain level of viscosity to it where when spot dropped onto an algae patch temporarily out of the water during a water change the EasyCarbo distributes over the algae patch and clings on to a certain extent so has a chance to work. I have tried NeutroCO2 but found that much thinner and less viscous than EasyCarbo so tends to just drain off the treated regions.
I've never used Excel and was wondering if anyone has had experience with both Excel and EasyCarbo whether these have essentially identical physical properties, or whether one is noticably more viscous/sticky than the other?
