Default Running bleach in loop?
I currently have a bad algae problem - tried vinegar with no success. Cleaned everything and refilled with de-ionised water only at least 3 times now, even bought new tubing. Do you think I'd be able to run bleach through it without damaging anything? I'm willing to try anything.. sick of everying going green!

I would forgo the bleach and use PT Nuke.

Is your rig near a source of sunlight? That will dramatically increase algae growth. I cannot see why you could not add chlorine to your system. I would rinse rinse rinse after you run it through and use your additives in the new coolant.

Make sure your rinse and clean your part good before filling. Also keeping the system away from the sunlight helps stop algae growth. Try getting some black tubing or tubing where light cant really get in + silver coil/PT nuke.

Nah, I changed the water each time. And it's under a desk so hardly any light reaches it. I've cleaned it all out very thoroughly a couple of times but still like to grow (mainly on the tubing walls). PT nuke definitly doesn't work for this one for some reason, which I why I had the idea of bleach.

Try a silver kill coil + pt nuke. If that doesn't work contact the goverment as they may want to study the algae

Cant seem to find the kill coils in the UK :/

I don't understand how its still alive, I tried about 10 drops of PT nuke once which still didn't work.
