I am considering treating my tank with Erythromycin to combat the green slime (or sheet) algae. I have heard this works well. I understand that this can also have a negative effect on the benificial bacteria colonies; killing them (or some) off. If I do this I plan to watch my amonia level very closely as well as nitrate and nitrite.
Has anyone used this method? If so how did it work for you. I am just a little leary of medicating the water when all the fish are healthy.
