I was wondering about something. In my aquarium I regular use glutaraldehyde, to help keep my aquarium algae free, and give the plants a little carbon boost.

I read about people having trouble with algae and other microbacterial growth in their hydroponic set ups. So I am planning to try this on a regular base in my set up as well, if and when algae start to appear.

Did anyone else try this yet? Did it work. Is there any reason I shouldn’t do this?
