EcoPond Barley-Bio Algae Control - 250ml - Green

It uses specially selected micro-organisms that compete with algae for nutrients and alter water chemistry, making the environment less hospitable for algae growth.

Yes, the formula is completely natural and poses no harm to fish, pets, or wildlife.

Yes, the product is safe even if used in amounts exceeding the recommended dosage.

For optimal initial results, it is recommended to remove as much filamentous algae as possible before the first application.

The maintenance dose of 20-40 ml per 4,500 litres should be applied weekly to prevent re-growth.

The initial dose is a higher concentration to kick-start the algae control process, while the maintenance dose is a lower, regular application to keep algae levels suppressed.

Results can vary depending on the severity of the algae problem and pond conditions. Typically, visible improvements can be seen within a few weeks of consistent application.

Ensure manual removal of bulk algae was performed. Continue with weekly maintenance doses as algae populations will decline over time. Check if environmental factors like excessive sunlight or nutrient runoff are contributing.

Cloudy water can sometimes be a temporary side effect of biological treatments as micro-organisms work. Ensure you are using the correct dosage and continue regular application. If cloudiness persists for an extended period, consult additional pond care resources.

The biological activity of micro-organisms can slow down in colder water temperatures. Consider increasing the frequency of maintenance doses slightly during cooler periods or expect slower results until warmer weather returns.
