Pond Algae

There are many kinds of Pond Algae that come in different colors and different forms.
Surprisingly enough, algae can be green, red, and even brown.
Sometimes Pond Algae is small and makes your water look like pea soup and sometimes it's stringly like hair.
There are many ways to Treat and Control Algae in your Fish Pond.

There are Liquid and Granular types of Algeacides to keep your unpleasant Pond Algae under control.

Before treating your Fish Pond with an Algaecide it is important to make sure that your pond has a Balanced pH between 7.0 and 8.0. The closer to 7, the better.
Having a balanced pond will make your Algaecide more effective.

Using a Beneficial Bacteria will also up your chances of controlling your Algae. Beneficial Bacteria will help eliminate the nutrients that Algae feeds on.

UV Clarifiers in conjunction with a good Pond Filter make controlling all that green water a breeze. The UV clarifier makes the Algae that passes by it, sterile. Usually Algae reproduces at a fast pace, but by taking away this possibility it is easy to understand just how quickly a UV Clarifier can work. Having a good Pond Filter to catch all the sterile Algae, will help prevent Algae from going back into the pond.

After getting your Algae under control, the use of Barley Products will help ensure that you won't have Algae problems later on.
