I recently had a blue green algae infestation in a lightly planted 20g long I just started in a lightly planted tank that wiped out all of my wisteria and a few other plants:irked:. I have 4 Anubias and 1 clump of Java Fern left and I read that treating the tank with erythromycin will kill it.
I dosed 200mg per 10 gallons for four days with a week long black out and the algae turned brown but it is still clinging to my plants, does it mean it still alive? I was hoping just to wipe it off and transfer the plants and the filter to a more mature tank, so would it be safe to do so without spreading it to the mature tank?
Thanks for the help.
