wouldn't dream of sticking BLEACH in my buckets, maybe when i cleaning them and rinse them threw good and proper, but not were my roots are no way!!!
That's the only thing I would ever use bleach for.. while changing rez or cleaning it from a plant that had been infected..

h202 is hydrogen peroxide.. you don't have something 3% or less lying around?

note: you shouldn't use h202 with innoculants or organics

You guys would freak if you saw my roots.. they're soo stained by my nutes.

You need to take into account the possibility of nute staining.. but it only occurs with certain nutrient lines (most organics..)

ya I noticed that the same thing happened with me when I started using botanicares liquid karma... its kinda sludgey. I agree with you that H202 is the way to go

Honestly as non ideal as it sounds the bleach appears to be working. Roots already whiter and the couple black spots seem to be deteriorating

went and got some 29% H2o2
hi there when u buy that stuff from hydro shop its 17.5% to increase oxygen u add 5ml per 10liters....for cleaning sanitising systems (without plants in) you add 50ml per 10 liters so remember ur h2o2 is 29% so u would need to add half ov what i have jus wrote in this post m8

Holy shit. The stuff is a miracle cure haha, i put a few tps in another plant thats having some root rot problems (it also has some algea shit growing on the sides in there which i was going to clean tommorow cause i have a massive migraine right now) within a couple hours the roots are like 5x whiter and all the stuff that was growing is completely gone.

I always do things on the light side to be safe. I added 2.5 ml per gallon.

Nah, just didnt expect it to be so effective especially since ive seen tons of people saying it did nothing. It was either h2o2 or compost tea.

The hydro store threw in some zho powder for free and i already have some compost, i wonder if i can make some without aqua shield

you say it was either the h202 or compost tea... H202 completely kills all living organisms in your medium. There is absolutely no reason to use compost tea and h202 at the same time... (if thats what you did)
