Late reply, but I'm catching up after being gone for awhile. The answer to your question is no. The only real way to get rid of BBA is to increase the CO2 to 30ppm or more. Once you get it that high, the BBA will stop spreading and then it's just a matter of killing/removing the BBA that was already in the tank.
