Excel Overdosing
 
You know that Excel overdose to get rid of algae thingy ?
How much of an overdose are we talking about ?

I'm also wondering about the safety of my fish.
I have Clown Loaches, Corys, Angels, Danios, and Platys.
Is there anything to look out for apart from the fish gasping at the surface
?

TIA
Peter

Just use as directed, that works for me. Fertilizing properly helps too.

As in Flourish twice a week, or the EI thing ?

I use the EI thing, and that by itself does algae a lot of damage.
