eSHa Protalon 7.0.7 20ml

PROTALON 707 will help your plants to eliminate all algae in your aquarium and should be used whenever algae problems are encountered! Unlike other treatments, it does not harm aquarium plants – it actually helps them grow and outcompete the algae – and it is safe for fish and filters. The unique two bottle treatment provides you with algae prevention and plant boost in one treatment.

A list of specific disease algae that PROTALON 707 treats:

Filamentous algae;
Slime algae (covers everything with a green, jelly like material);
Beard / hair algae (tufts from black to green);
Brown slime algae / black algae;
Blue-green algae (not real algae, but responds to PROTALON 707);
Suspended algae (causes green water in aquarium);
Green algae (harmless in small quantities – can be healthy – uses up excess nutrients);

PROTALON 707 also treats most transitional forms of algae. There are over 25,000 species!

What precautions must I take when using PROTALON 707?
Algae removal
In extreme cases – when there are more algae than plants – remove as much algae as possible from your aquarium by hand. Rotting material is not good for your water quality or for your fish.

CO2 and plant food
Turn off your CO2-installation and do not add any plant food / fertilisers as these also stimulate algae growth.

Aquatic snails
PROTALON 707 may kill aquatic snails. Remove them before starting the treatment.

How do I dose PROTALON 707?
1. To get rid of algae, use a 7 day treatment plan of PROTALON 707 over a 1 week period: dose on day 1 (bottle A) & day 2 (bottle A) & day 3 (bottle A + B) according to the calculations and skip day 4 & 5. Then on day 6 (bottle A + B) & day 7 (bottle A), dose the calculated dosage. Calculate the volume of your aquarium (only the area occupied by water). You can use the Dosage Calculator to calculate the correct dosage.

2. Add drops of PROTALON 707 to your aquarium by holding the bottle upside down and squeezing the pipette (20 drops = 1 ml).

3. After the treatment, the remaining solution in bottle B can be used to aid your plants / suppress algae: once every 2 weeks (10 drops per 100 litres).

In very extreme cases – when there are more algae than plants – the cure must be repeated after 14 days.
