Hygrozyme, and most hydroponic stores will have it. If not, buy it online. It isn't inexpensive but unlike many products out there, it DELIVERS!
http://www.wormsway.com/detail.asp?sku=HYG405 Hygrozyme is an enzyme complex that takes any dead matter and digests it, making it available to the plant as food. Rot is stopped dead and the good tissue has a chance to take hold. Same goes for Hydroguard: Hydroguard Water Treatment Hydroguard is a bacterial inoculant, the bacteria colonize the roots and water, preventing harmful pathogens from gaining a hold. This stuff is cheap though, and a little goes a long way. My first couple of hydroponics systems were pretty poorly concieved, and with these I still got bud.

Check out hempy buckets.
Root rot is usually caused by too high temperature in a DWC rez. High temp causes low D O* Low D O promotes anaerobic bacteria. Enzymes alone are not enough to overcome low D O Only solutions with high D O are safe from disease. Some growers are turning dwc tubs into hempy buckets. *(Dissolved Oxygen) .

Nothing can overcome the low DO of 76º water.
You will eventually get root rot with that temp. You have three choices. •lower the rez temp •change to aero, or flood and drain. •convert your tubs to hempy buckets.
