when using algae destroyer tablets, if it's not working at all, how often until I can use it again? Without harming cichlids. Or does it not work, and am I just going to have to scrub the sides of the tank like I had been before I ever used it(aquarium pharmaceuticals, algae destroyer tablets). Thanks for whatever advice you can give me!

if the algae destroyer does not work u can continue scrubbing the tank (have you tried vinegar and water ?) try algae eaters like plecostemus or snails but be warned snails do breed and ensure a good filter system as well

My Betta 5 gal hex is being taken over by brown algae. I clean the tank once a week like suggested and clean the plants, castle rock, etc. In three days time it took over the entire tank walls included. I can't see my fish! So I put one tablet, suggested amount for 5 gal, in yesterday and it seems to be getting worse. Can I put another one in there or is this stuff useless? I can't add any other fish as he is a male betta and hates tankmates, actually killed two that is why he is alone.
