Don't know if it can really work? And does it kill all kinds of algae? Maybe they'll start to make a mini version for tanks :) And hopefully is cheap enough :)

actually that is call a sonicator which is often use in lab to dissolved things faster as vibration on particles made it easier for solid to dissolve and it is able to break down cell wall of bacteria.. hence it does harm the fish and may also kill good bacteria in the process...!!!

Any technology that is out can try asking me next time as i study on chem eng.. hence alot of working principle i still know a bit due to the fact that i need to know to work on my projects dealing with bacteria

Yar it is good at killing algae but what is not natural there is always problem

Agree with you. My physics book also say ultrasound is used to kill bacteria and small organisms. Thus, may kill B bactieria. But I dont think it can break down the chitin cell walls of plant cells.
