algae problems

hi all just wanted to warn you water board are putting phosphate in the pipes to flush them out but high dosages which spike high algae then it turns into silicates as we have just found out a lot of people are having serious problems with this and losing fish you can get phosex ultra in liquid and granular form to put in your external filter and also silicat ex in granular form also for external they tend to flush it in friday i have been advised to water changes after tuesday and not weekends which i did just thought i would let you know just in case same happens to u also

thanks for that info marty...worth bearing in mind !!...and good to know !..they kept that very quiet !

They certainly did cheeky monkeys lol  

wouldn't you think that they would know the damage it could cause and make the public aware of the risks...maybe even sell the phosex ultra to people ...they might have even boosted their profits even more !!...on the flip side...wonder if people who suffered losses could sue them for negligence ??

they would probs say that its not meant for fish just meant for drinking
