Animal Wellbeing Blackbeard Algae Remover 250ml
Blackbeard algae (BBA), scientifically referred to as Audouinella sp. and Rhodochorton is a common type of red algae found in freshwater aquariums. It is characterised by its dark green, grey, or black hues. If not managed quickly, this algae can spread rapidly, often due to low carbon dioxide levels that hinder plant growth and create favourable conditions for BBA.
