Bleach dip

And at that consistency, for that period of time, I have never lost a Val. or any other 'tender' plant.
25:1 is very effective on BBA and any other algae I've used it for, for that matter.

Wild guy.....check the sticky on algae and use the search engine by typing in BBA and you will find all kinds of info. on this particular algae.

Alright, 25:1 it is for the next time. Whoops! If all of the leaves on the val are clear and dissolving, should I just remove the roots and plant something else, or is there a chance of new leaves growing?

Cool. To my surprise, none of the crypts rotted. They seem fairly sturdy, but being sensitive to water change, I was also thinking that the bleach would affect them adversely. The java fern looks better than ever, and apparently it made new plants that I discovered amongst the java moss and algae. I now see why it's a beginner plant. Absolutely impossible to mess up with java fern.
