Hi all, my first post on this site, very helpfull thread.

My question is this... I have found what appers to be a cheaper alternative to excel called "easy life easycarbo". And was wondering if anyone had any feedback about this product?

Also i have some reluctance to use these aldehyde based products because i have 'pellia' (MT) which i have heard is vulnerable to it. alsoCladophora aegagropila (moss balls) are present and i know these are a colony of algae so am worried these may be susceptable to the treatments.
