NT Labs Pond Aid Aquaclear

NT Labs Pond Aid Aquaclear or the control of algae and blanket weed in ponds. Restricts growth using a UV screening, faint blue dye.

NT Labs Pond Aid Aquaclear is harmless to wildlife, plants, pondlife and pets. Sunlight, shining onto the water supplied the energy for algae and blanket weed to grow. Shading the water reduces the amount of light available and, therefore, the growth of algae and blanket weed.

Aquaclear needs to be maintained at working strength throughout the season and is not suitable for ponds where there is a flow through of water.

To control blanket weed, it is best to apply Aquaclear early in the year, before the growing season starts. This is because blanket weed is a kind of algae which first starts growing as a unicellular green algae before attaching itself to surfaces and forming the unsightly threads which we all know as blanket weed If stopped in the early phase of growth, it cannot develop into the nuisance we all know.

Dosage: - Add 10ml to 125 gallons (560 litres) of pond water

Top up the colour every 6 weeks during the season.

NT Labs Pond Aid Aquasure - Tap Water Chlorine Remover

NT Labs Pond Aid Aquasure will help to make safe Tap water which can contain a variety of chemicals which may be harmful to fish if added to a pond.

Chlorine reacts with nitrogen in the water to form chloramines which is much longer laster lasting and can reach further away from the point chlorine was added. Sometimes, water companies will add ammonia together with the chlorine to make sure that sufficient chloramines are formed to disinfect the water and make it safe to drink. It is impossible to know whether or not the water coming out of your tap contains any of these chemicals without testing.It is therefore, advisable to use a dechlorinator such as Aquasure whenever tap water is added to the pond.
