lol i killed all my cherry shrimp not long ago thinking it wasn't that harmful...

But then again i basically just dumped a bunch in...

To be honest i don't think spot treating actually works. Sure it'll get rid of some stuff but it usually come right back within a couple weeks.

you have to address the problem of why it's there, but peroxide is effective in killing the algae.
I have a 55g that gets a little hair algae that has to be treated every 5-6 weeks
