>what most members seem to surmise is that BGA is an algae.<

Indeed, it is a bacteria, not algae as most understand it. I had an outbreak
of it some months ago and I dosed the tank with erythromycin and blacked it
out for three days. Voila, no more BGA and no outbreaks since.



is there a formula for the amount of erythromycin to dose say in a 75 g
tank. If you have a 250 g size pill, what do you do, just crush it up and
sprinkle it into the tank?

Rick
