Does anybody have any experience with this algae treatment?
Specifically does it clear BBA and is it safe for livestock?

The thread sounds convincing, but the fact that I haven't seen it mentioned on this site makes me wonder if it is yet another "too good to be true" algae cure.
I have found that neat Easycarbo applied to exposed leaves clears BBA very well, but 2-3x overdosing the whole tank had no noticeable effect. Much of the algae in one of my tanks is now too low down to expose at water change.
This nano tank has a severe BBA problem that dates from when I used DIY CO2. I have used no CO2 for months now and only 5hrs of light, but the BBA is still spreading. I have just set up a proper CO2 system and would like a full clean up of plants, glass, rocks, wood etc, in the hope that I have sorted the underlying cause. My experience of BBA is that even when the initiating cause has been sorted, it still needs to be removed; it will not go by itself.
Thanks in advance for any help.
