White Spot

[sws]

Hello
Thanks to my LFS I have an outbreak of whitespot. I'm trying king british WS3. Does anyone know the following
What's the difference between WS3 and the other king british preparation?
Will it affect the biological filter?
Will it affect the plants?
Is it any good?
Thanks
Shaun

What's the difference between WS3 and the other king british preparation?

stronger concentrations of active ingredients

Will it affect the biological filter?

yes, ws3 has an adverse effect of nitrifying bacteria.

Will it affect the plants?

no.

Is it any good?

one of the best white spot treatments available over the counter.

during treatment it is advised that you ensure you have sufficient surface aggitation.
this will encourage a better gas exchange and introduce a good supply of O2
which will keep the nitrifying bacteria in good health.
