Address cyanobacteria with Dr. Tank BGA Zero. Treatment No. 8 is designed to help control blue-green algae (BGA), more accurately known as cyanobacteria, in freshwater planted aquariums. When used as directed, it provides effective support for managing existing algae and reducing spread through the rest of the aquarium. BGA Zero works best alongside good maintenance and by addressing the conditions that encourage cyanobacteria to develop. Poor circulation, excess nutrients, and organic waste can all contribute to outbreaks, making routine cleaning an important part of long-term prevention. Does My Aquarium Have BGA? Despite its name, blue-green algae (BGA) isn’t actually an algae! It’s a type of cyanobacteria that’s easy to identify. It typically appears as slimy mats that range from blue-green to dark green and can quickly spread across the substrate, aquatic plants, hardscape, and aquarium equipment. Unlike many common algae, BGA often peels away in large sections and has a distinctive smell.
