Green Water Control

Suspended green algae is present in all natural aquatic environments and in small quantities it is beneficial. However, when excess nutrients and light are available, algae in aquariums can become thick, unsightly and out of control. It may also be harmful to fish because it can clog the filter, foul the water, irritate fish’s gills, deplete the oxygen in the water (especially at night) and cause pH fluctuations.

Green Water Control binds suspended algae cells into biodegradable clumps that sink to the bottom of the tank. It is important to remove the dead algae as soon as possible to prevent oxygen depletion in the aquarium which could stimulate renewed algae growth

To help control algae growth and avoid green water returning, an assessment of light exposure should be made:
Is the tank too close to a window or exposed to too much light?
Is the lighting over the tank too powerful or being left on too long?
8-10 hours per day of artificial light is the usual recommendation

For use in Tropical & Coldwater Aquariums.

Use Green Water Control:

• When excess floating algae appears on the aquarium surface
  
• If aquarium water appears green
  
• If the filter is clogged with algae
