H2O2 and BGA

["Bailin Shaw" <bailin_shaw at hotmail_com>]

Hello APDer's,

With all of the talk on hydrogen peroxide, I thought I'd throw in some new 
information on what happened in my 55G planted tank.  Someone previously 
mentioned that they used peroxide to get rid of blue green algae, so I 
thought I'd give it a whirl.  I added 1 ounce of peroxide to the tank and by 
the next day, the BGA had cleared up.  I still need to check all of the 
parameters of the tank to see if there is a major deficiency in nutrients 
that's causing this outbreak, but the results are promising.  I hope that it 
stays gone in the long run.  I'll keep everybody informed.  Thanks for all 
the good info.
