:) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) ;D
there r always "tiny white dots" on my tank(inside). n "cloudy" things sitting under the big rocks.  since i m soooo nice ;) to my tiger barbs, green tiger barbs.. ( they r WONDERFUL fish! :-*)therefore, i bought "No More Algae".. but i dunno how to use it!!!  the direction of use is kinda confusing to me. it says "...DO NOT USE IN TANKS WITH LIVE PLANTS, SNAILS, OR OTHER INVERTEBRATES..."
then.. how m i supposted to use it? m i supposted to put in the pill when my fish r put in another tank? then how long should i wait till the time to replace them back into the tank??? or i can just leave my beloved fish in the tank when the pill is FIZZZZing in the water and killin the algae???
r snails good for algae problem?  :-/ :-/ :-/

Stuff like that, well its useless. Get fish to combat your problem algae and use ro water when changing so that no algae causing nutrients are added.

Fish are vertebrates. Not invertebrates. Inverts are sensitive, fish aren't nearly as. You should be safe.

Yes I have some flagfish. The only thing with them is that they don't eat that algea that sticks on the side but the thread algea that sways around. You may want to consider that. Mine didn't have any thread algea so they started eating my plants. :'( Oh well they'll grow back. ;D
