Aquarium Advice Addict
Ive got an aquarium that I'll be re-scaping and restocking. Ive got all the fish out of it and its only current inhabitants are a crap load of pest snails and a lot of Black/Green hair algae. Id rather kill as many of the snails and as much of the algae before I tear it down so as to minimize the amount of both that I put down my drain.
Im not concerned at all about the BB in my filtration as Im pretty sure that my filters are also loaded with snails and algae.
Whats the best way to do this? Just pour in a bunch of bleach and let it cycle through the tank and filters for a while? Im open to suggestions.
For now Im going to pour in some Hydrogen Peroxide. I dont think that does anything to the snails, but hopefully it will start making a dent in the algae.
