Seems like the bottle of Maxsea I have lying around has algae growing in it. It is in a dark place. Is it still usable? Or should I throw it out.

Inspirational quote.

How is algae growing if it's in a dark place?

Mine has a little algae and I use it with no ill effects.

Same, algae doesn’t seem to affect much other than looks. If you want to get rid of it, I’d suggest keeping your MaxSea in the freezer.
