A Word from Our Customers

Real People, Real Experiences, Real Results

"...Terrific Product...It works like magic..."

Bernard K. - Livonia, Michigan


"...What a wonderful product!!! Takes the guess work out of aquarium start-up! Thank you so much for your product, my fish & I just love it..."

Jon F. - Plano, Texas


"...Algone works! I'd done everything right with my 72 gallon saltwater tank but couldn't rid it of the huge brown algae blooms...used only R/O water and did regular water changes, used high volume protein skimmer, kept a light fish load, never overfed and kept tank lighting to minimal hours. Water tests were in normal ranges and my dealer was unable to offer any effective advice. I was at wits end when I turned to the internet and searched for info on algae control....I quickly found the Algone site but was wary of the claims and of the endorsements. After calling Algone for more info, I ordered a supply. I did a water change, placed two bags in the sump and waited...in less than 2 weeks the algae was greatly diminished. That was a few weeks ago and now I get very little algae which is easily managed and my fish do enjoy some algae. Water is crystal clear and my tank has never looked better. I'll be a regular customer. I've given my dealer the Algone package and asked him to order some to check-it-out for himself..."

Bob R. - Haines City, Florida


"...I use Algone in 4 of the 5 aquariums at the house. I also use it in all my aquarium maintenance service aquariums. There has been no problem with algae, ammonia or nitrite in any of these freshwater tanks. The nitrate level runs between 0-5ppm. Keeping these tanks sparking clean is good for business and I am proud to say that Algone has helped make my job a lot easier..."

Jackie D. / Happy Tanks - Pacific Grove, California


"...I placed my 2nd order today of 8 pks. I am really impressed with the results of Algone. Before I used it, my 100 gal. tank was murky with green algae. I just left the plants and drift wood alone, added Algone, and let it go to work. I still have algae on the wood, but it looks good..."

Jennifer B. - Fresno, California


"...I ordered some of your Algone and we have just started the 4th week of treatment. Three weeks ago our aquarium, which is in our solarium, was literally radioactive green. We couldn't see the fish unless they were right up against the glass. We tried algaecides and they proved to be absolutely useless. Algone is fabulous. In three weeks the tank is now back to almost crystal clear condition. I'm sure you've heard this before, but this product is absolutely fabulous, and what really amazes me is that I could find nothing like it in any aquarium store in the city of Toronto. Thank heaven I found you on the Net.

Best Regards, and thanks for a great product - you saved our aquarium..."

Neil L. - Toronto, Ontario


"...At the time I called and ordered your product I too was skeptical that anything so easy could possibly work so well as claimed. The problem I had was with my 180gal reef tank. Hair algae was taking over my tank and was getting to the point of being uncontrollable. The tank itself is setup using a modified Berlin filtration system and had been stable for over 4 years...until now. Upon using Algone in two separate treatments, I couldn't believe the difference. In just less than 4 weeks, there's not one hint of hair algae to be found...anywhere! UNBELIEVABLE! Nitrate levels dropped from 9ppm to undetectable in 2 weeks. Water clarity has also improved. Whatever is in those pouches has made a believer out of me. Thanks so much for making a product that actually works!..."

Kelly K. - Gardena, California


"...I struggled for 10 years trying to eliminate algae from this salt tank. It's a 27 gal. tall tank with a canister filter/biowheel combo, a protein skimmer, and two power heads. Since using Algone for two months the tank has NEVER been this clean! The clownfish is 10+ years old..."

Michael C. - Tempe, Arizona


"...Works great...Will purchase again & again...Thanks for such a great product..."

John L. - Grand Rapids, Michigan


"...Algone is a great product. I had no nitrate in my tank, and I took the pad out for too or three days just to see and guess what? My nitrate started to rise, I put a new pad in and within a day or two my Nitrate dropped back to zero! Thanks for everything..."

Bob C. - North Haledon, New Jersey


"...I am impressed by the service and quality of your product..."

Teo S. - Singapore


"...O.K., I was skeptical at first but Algone is the best thing that has EVER happened to algae control! Keep up the good work..."

William L. - Hayden Lake, Idaho


"...Since I have been using your product my tank has improved 1000%. My fish are healthy, I use less filters and have too clean far less often. Great product..."

David H. - Bow, New Hampshire


"...I am not often in the habit of writing fan letters, but my use of "Algone" certainly merits a note. I had a cloudy tank for about two and a half months and nothing seemed to help until I used "Algone". After one week I noticed an improvement, and after two weeks the tank was as clear as anyone good hope. There are many products that are sold to us and many of them do not work. It is very refreshing to find a reasonably priced product and one that does exactly what it says..."

Mel L. - Columbia, Maryland


"...The constant formation of algae and the lingering cloudiness in my freshwater tank turned a hobby into a chore. I tried just about every product out there that claimed to get rid of algae and cloudy water. None of them worked. Then I came across the Algone website and decided to give it a try. I did a complete and thorough cleaning of the tank before placing Algone in my filter box. It's been about 5 weeks and my tank is still clear. No algae. No cloudiness. Algone works! I strongly recommend Algone to anyone who is going through what I went through..."

Duy N. - Mission Viejo, California


"...I had used Algone for about seven months and did not notice anything special ... until I stopped using it. Within a month nitrates and algae were out of control. Algone is kind of like a good pair of shocks on your car, you don't notice it until you don't have it..."

Tyler J. - Greenwood, Indiana


"...Great Stuff!! I don't know how we could run the tank without it..."

Connie B. - New York, New York


"...It works, period."

Wayne R. - Skokie, Illinois


"...WOW! I was ready to give up this hobby completely! My once beautiful reef tank was a scene from the wreck of the Titanic! Dirty, Ugly. Dying! After using two weeks worth of Algone my tank is once again a thing of beauty. The local marine store is still trying to figure out how I have zero nitrates, when before I was in the danger zone! Thanks Algone-here is a reorder for twice as much! (Need to share with friends!)..."

Phillip J. - Aurora, Colorado


"...your product has solved my problems. it saved me from getting rid of the aquarium I enjoy so much.
Thanks again..."

Richard R. - Salinas, California


"...I received Algone, installed it in a tank which had 30ppm nitrates yesterday...Today it has 15ppm...I'm impressed..."

Dave L. - Gloversville, NY


"...I tried Algone and it cleared all of the algae out of my plant tank in a couple weeks. This with Dayton, Ohio tap water is impressive. Our water has 2ppm of PO4, and about 20-30 ppm nitrate. Excellent Product..."

Gary H. - West Carrollton, Ohio


"...Just wanted to let you know, I’ve had aquariums for the better part of the past ten years. During this time I set up my share of tanks and thought I had it down to a science on how to avoid problems with new tanks before they occurred. Then I found your site, figured I’d try your product during the cycling of a new tank I was about to set up. I was skeptical, but let me tell you the tank has been running for over a year now and I’ve never had a more carefree aquarium in all that time. 
Excellent Product! Thank you..."

 Thomas S. – Jacksonville, FL


"...Your product is every bit of what you say and more!  After spending gobs of money on unworthy chemical placebos, I stumbled on to your site and thought I would give Algone a try!  I ordered Algone on a Friday and received it that next Monday!  My tank was so cloudy you could not see to the other side.  In less then 3 days my tank is clear as a bell!  I've told my neighbors about Algone and they have ordered too!  You have a wonderful product and are reasonable and timely!  Don't change Algone!..."

"...Just wanted to let you know MY RED ALGAE IS GONE !! It's almost to good to be true. I have fought that red algae and run away nitrates since last summer, and now they are gone. I am just thrilled. I have one more packet of Algone for next week and you can bet I will be ordering more. Thanks again..."

Emma B. - Lorton, Virginia


"...I have 25, 55 & 80 gallon saltwater tanks...Product worked well on water clarity as well as hair algae in 80. Still experiencing phosphate algae, although at a lesser degree..."

Chuck L. - Savannah, Georgia


"...I really enjoyed your website. I love aquariums, fish, live plants, and most of all to read about them. The only thing I would have to say that I disagree with is the Nov. 14, 2000 fish quiz: the question was about a hospital tank and what it is used for. The answer was for sick fish. In my opinion, especially in marine tanks, hospital tanks are used for any new fish that might bring a disease into the aquarium. You treat the tank with medicine that would kill any bacteria/organism that may be carried on the new fish. Well, I thank you for your time and great website..."

Rachel N.


"...The first order I used greatly reduced the amount of red slime algae in my tank, but I had such a severe problem, I'm ordering another dose. Great Product..."

Kevin P. - West Melbourne, Florida


"...Your product Algone is something else.  We (my girlfriend Danette and I) had done everything the local pet stores had suggested but just couldn't get the nitrite level down and were really worried about our fish as success in the past was not the best.  But alas, a search on the internet, a decision to call you, and then order the product based on the feeling you really knew what you were talking about has been the best decision we could have made for our fish.  Within one week nitrite levels began to come down, second week they were perfect and the water was crystal clear. I enjoy dealing with people who care about their customers, and you guys certainly do.
Thanks again and stay in touch..."

Bob B. - Harrisonburg, Virginia


"...I've been very happy with Algone, both the product and the company itself. I ordered Algone, and within two days, there it was in my mailbox.  I put it to work immediately, and Nitrate levels of 60 PPM were reduced to 10 PPM in about 2 days (this in a 55 gallon tank).  It's incredibly easy to use--I just pop a packet in my canister filter, and that's all there is to it.
My fish and I are hooked..."

Doug H. - Springfield, Missouri


"...Just wanted to thank you for your fast processing of my order.. I live in Ontario, Canada and seriously thought it would take weeks to receive your product.. But, to my surprise, it came in the mail in 1 week!! I've wasted no time either, put the pouch in the water filter within minutes of opening the box..
Is there a Canadian Dist. that would be easier for me to purchase Algone? Don't get me wrong, it was dead easy to order online.. but it would also be nice to purchase it right from a local store..
Thanks again for the quick service..."

 Mark C. - Ontario, Canada


"...I just wanted to update you on my progress. I received my Algone just 2 days after ordering and was very eager to plop it in my tanks... but, I waited until I had enough time to REALLY clean both tanks, especially my gross 20 gallon, before tossing it in. (I wanted to give it a fair shot at working.) I don't know if you remember my first email letter, but I'll refresh your memory: my name is Debbie and I have 2 tanks. My 20 gal is a year old and has a bad algae problem. My 75 gal is brand new.. up for only almost 4 weeks. My major concern was the algae growth. I had to scrape the glass daily to even see the fish (in the 20 gal)... not to mention the nice expensive coral pieces that are brown. This past Saturday, I spent 4 hours cleaning everything in the 20 gal and did a 20% water change... then placed the Algone bag in the filter. The 75 gal wasn't that bad being that it has only been up for 4 weeks... so I cleaned the glass and the coral pieces and placed 2 Algone bags in the filter system. The 75 gal is still cycling and has zero ammonia and nitrite of about 4! But, I wasn't freaking out... after all, it's cycling. Well, (this is the good part!!!!) today is Tuesday and I still have NO ALGAE GROWTH in either tank. I cannot believe my eyes! When I tell you my 20 gal had a BAD algae problem, I mean it... it was gross... I would clean the tank really well every Saturday and scrape the glass everyday (almost everyday... I would have days of discouragement... it seemed useless!) and I would wake up the next morning and see algae starting already! I'm not kidding! It was out of control! It is Tuesday... 3 days since placing Algone in the tank... and I have no algae! I don't want to get too excited so soon, but I know my tank... it has NEVER looked this bright, crisp, and sparkling for so many days without cleaning it every day! I swear I haven't touched it since Saturday! (Who am I trying to convince here... Ha!Ha!) I am amazed. I love your product! Oh, I almost forgot... my 75 gal (no algae growth there either) that had a nitrite level of 4 on Saturday... the level is already down to 0.5! Now, I know it may be partly due to the natural growth of the necessary nitrifying bacteria... but I doubt if it would have dropped this much so rapidly without the Algone! Have I mentioned how excited I am? Ha!Ha! May I ask one question? Since the algae growth is ceased, should I change the bags only monthly... or is it too soon. When should I start the maintenance part of the Algone system? I will keep you updated on my progress. But, so far Algone get my highest marks! I can actually enjoy my fish instead of peering through the algae to see them! I've always wanted beautiful marine aquariums... and now I've got them! Thank you..."

Debbie B. - North Tonawanda, New York


"...I have just submitted an order to you via the "express lane" mechanism--great idea! I also wanted to let you know that the Algone is taking care of my algae problem just as you promised. My aquarium is in a bright sunroom, and it is looking better than ever. The water quality is still improving, and the algae is disappearing. I'm only halfway through the initial treatment.
Thanks for a great product..."

Bob V. - Huntersville, North Carolina


"...I must thank you for your return reply. I cannot tell you how much your knowledge and information has helped me. I have been going nuts trying to find out about this algae etc. I made an error. My tank is 55 gal. If you think I need to order more please go ahead and order for me what you have recommended in this note. I appreciate you waiving the shipping charges as well. Looks like because of you Algone have made me a bonafide lifetime customer. Thanks again for your help..."

Jo C. - Placerville, California


"...We have a show tank at the entrance of our store. Keeping the algae under control was never possible because of the large amount of sun light. Since we started stocking Algone we also use it in the store. We no longer have trouble with algae in this particular tank. It's terrific..."

Elmer's Aquarium, Monroeville, Pennsylvania


"...We are very happy with Algone. We have been using Algone in our show tanks for some time now and are not only pleased with the results, but also with the simplicity of the product. It's quick and easy to use..."

Pet Supplies Plus, Cranberry, Pennsylvania


"...Algone is a great product. We keep our nitrate levels low with Algone and haven't had any algae problems since we started using it..."

Wet Pets and Friends, McMurray, Pennsylvania


"...We use Algone in our own tanks. We mainly use it to treat for blue-green and hair algae. We also use Algone to maintain low nitrate levels. We are very happy with the product..."

All Star Pets, Zelienople, Pennsylvania


"...It really works! I can't believe how clear the water in my tank is. My nitrate levels are in check and all of the algae has disappeared. My fish are livelier then ever.
Thanks Algone..."
