Steve,
I think the 50/50 tapwater/vinegar mix will kill your algae. |
can you guarentee that though
I must be sure it is all dead
the vinager is only for the sump and main pumps, it won't see the main or secondary tanks. the bleach is going to be a system wide volume (bleach is cheeper than vinager
) so I am only doing a 33 gal mix of vinager/water, where I am doing a 130 gal mix of bleach/water at about 10 to 15 gal of it bleach to give me a 10% mix.
Steve
