Plant Essential® Black Beard Remover is scientifically formulated to effectively remove Black Beard Algae (BBA) and other nuisance algae from freshwater aquariums. BBA is one of the most prevalent issues in freshwater aquariums, often appearing as dark, bushy growths. If left untreated, BBA can spread rapidly, covering glass surfaces, wood, and plants, which may cause stress and discomfort to the aquarium's inhabitants by blocking light and depleting oxygen levels.

To help mitigate stress and maintain a vibrant and healthy aquarium environment, we recommend providing a balanced array of nutrients. This can be achieved by using our comprehensive range of supplements, including Plant Essential® Bio-Nutrients™, which supplies essential macro and micronutrients, Plant Essential® Bio-Molecules™, which supports vital plant functions, and Plant Essential® Bio-Trace™, which ensures trace elements are available for optimal plant growth.

As your aquarium plants grow stronger and healthier, they will naturally outcompete BBA by absorbing the nutrients that BBA relies on, thereby slowing its growth rate. Plant Essential® Black Beard Remover is a highly effective tool for eliminating BBA, especially when used in conjunction with maintaining healthy water conditions and introducing algae-eating inhabitants like Siamese algae eaters or certain species of snails.

Furthermore, Plant Essential® Black Beard Remover is manufactured using only superior grade raw ingredients, ensuring a safe and potent solution without the harmful inclusion of toxic formaldehyde, which is often found in cheaper alternatives. For best results, please adhere to our carefully devised dosing instructions and avoid overdosing. Proper application will ensure a cleaner, healthier aquatic environment for your freshwater friends.

Suitable for these Freshwater environments:

Planted | Fish Only | Shrimp | Pond

Contents:
Deionized Water, Purified Polyglutaraldehyde

An important recommendation when using any type of algaecide is that extra attention is paid to the aquarium during the treatment process.
This is due to the nature of this method where algae are eradicated, breaking down into nitrogenous and organic molecules which may lower the concentration of oxygen due to being catabolized via bacteria. Additionally, eradicating algae which produces oxygen via photosynthesis, may lead to a decrease in oxygen concentration once it dies. This may have detrimental effects to aquarium inhabitants such as suffocation if adequate oxygen levels are not maintained.

Instructions:
Shaking is not required. Add directly into high water flow. For more accurate dosing, the dosing formula is total volume of aquarium and sump minus all media, rock, ornaments, etc. that occupies volume. This product cannot be used on a dosing pump.

Dog loves these!
My dog absolutely loves these toys! They hold up pretty well, the squeakers dont last long, but I am actually glad for that because I can only take so much squeaking. He gets so excited when I take a new one out and he carries them around everywhere. These are his favorite toys, by far.

Quality, Cute, Fun Toys for My Medium Sized Dogs
My dogs were very happy with these as Christmas gifts, and I’m very happy that I do not have worry about my dogs ingesting a bunch of stuffing or that I have to pick up stuffing all over the house. These are very cute, are of good quality, and are big enough for medium sized dogs to play with.

Pretty good. Maybe better for smaller less vilolent doggies.
Liked the colors and the concept. Did take care of the "stuffie pollution problem". Seems durable enough for my dogs to play "tug of war" with. I do think however the squeakers need more protection as they were toast in mere minutes it seemed. I think I will look for some made with canvas like material on outside to see if that will make them last longer. Special thanks to my "Testers" Luna and Chunky! Cheers!

My dog loved them, but did not live long. My 33lb dog is a killer with dog toys and this was like candy for her.
