i recently bought a 30 gallon tank with sump, skimmer, light, fish, lr, sand...... pretty much a fully setup tank but its has a little gha problem. the guy just didn't have time for it so it wasn't in the best shape. I've had it for about 2 weeks and have been doing 5 gallon water changes every few days (4 times so far). i have only been feeding the fish (2 clowns 1 watchman goby) every 2-3 days, he said he was feeding everyday and the skimmer wasn't even running when i went to get it. does anyone have ANY advice on how to get rid of the gha that i may not know? any advice will be greatly appreciated.
 
Ok, does it just mask it or actually get rid of it? I have some nualgi I forgot to say I've been putting in also.
 
It doesn't mask it, it kills it. It takes some time though to work so you have to be patient. But it had no effect on any of my fish or inverts and to me that's worth waiting a little while.
