Algae Control


Algae Maintenance

Algae is a part of nature, expect to have some and that's OK. The idea is to keep a fine balance.

There are many factors that may contribute to algae growth in your water feature, as well as no good reason at all.  The number one algae factor is sunlight, which we can not control.  Additionally, rain water run off, natural pollen and molds, lawn and garden treatments, excess fish food and fish waste, and debris in the water can all have an effect on the water quality.  We have broken down some of the water maintenance products for your water feature to keep it looking healthy and attractive. We sell each of the products described in the Shop section of our website.
