?
Thanks in advance

I don't use chemicals. I use water flea though. It worked for me.

Well one way around it was I placed the fleas in the biological filter compartment of my OHF. There's quite a lot of water there so they just feed off the algae in that compartment.

I've learned my lesson well from the used of chemicals to eliminate green water. Now, only UV filter and it is still the best!

Bro, as long is UV, your water will be back to crystal clear.
Brand doesn't matter, Phillips is a reputable brand, so should be long lasting.
