[APD] Re: Flourish Excel and algae



I wondered the same thing after reading the article.

Can algae consume organic corbon?

I came across an interview with Greg Morin on the Aqua Botanic website in
which
he says that algae can't feed on Flourish Excel. He goes on to say:

"But, for reasons Uncle Sam won't let us discuss, all I can say is that
algae
can't feed on Excel and I will leave it as an exercise to the reader to
deduce
why this is the case (big picture folks, no chemistry involved ;-)."

Perhaps I've had too much chemistry and biology to think big picture,
because I
can't figure out what he's getting at. Can anyone explain why Excel would
provide carbon to plants but not algae?

Thanks,
Jim
