Anytime you use chemicals to treat algae or weeds, please keep in mind the following: Treat your pond in sections. Treat only half the pond's surface at a time. During hot weather or when treating heavy growth, it is important to treat no more than 1/4 of your pond at a time and wait the full 14 days before re-applying. This helps lower the risk of fish loss during hot weather or when treating heavy growth.Once the algae or weeds have browned & died, use a rake to remove as much dead material as possible. This prevents an accumulation of dead plant material and muck.Take a proactive approach to pond management. Use EcoBoost PRx, PondClear, MuckAway, and Pond Dye to keep your pond looking great.
