Hello - Not a new topic but one I've been on losing battle of this year and have tried multiple things.

1. Cutrine Plus granular had zero effect on this algae.

2. Used lots of beneficial bacteria: initial results were promising, but eventually the horse hair algae out competed the bacteria.

3. Hired out a contractor they applied K-Tea, but in 3 days the horse hair algae was actually worse, probably from their small boat and sprayer stiring things up from bottom.

4. Same contractor tried Hydrothol 191, again looked fine for about 2-3 days, then actually worse so they got fired.

Now I'm back to square one, have the horse hair algae starting to take over again (after I manually removed it all painfully over an entire weekend, good 10 hours of pulling stuff out).

Ideas??

Thanks.
Ron
