CrystalClear Algae D-Solv EPA Registered Pond Algaecide, 1 Gallon

I really liked this stuff it works well on my fountain. But I won’t order it again because my last order was empty from the bottle, top was not on tight and it all spilled out into the plastic bag. It was a mess. I just had to throw it out. But this was the best stuff I have found to keep the algae out of my fountain.

This product does exactly as states and I wouldn't use anything else was extremely pleased I found it on Amazon and would highly recommend Fred Great value, keeps water clear, and is safe for your fish shipping was within 24 hours extremely pleased Fred

My pond is about 300,000 gallons and was full of blanket weeds so i took a risk and spend good money on 2 2.5 gallons cans. I used sprayer to spray it evenly on the water. Before that i manually removed 10 carts of weeds and spend at least 10 hours on that After 2 days i see that rest of the weeds got brown and after 5 days disappeared but water became very muggy and with oil film on surface. Probably max 2 foot visibility - that is why 4 stars because they told it will be crystal clear. May be it is from dead weeds on the bottom Only after couple of good rains it became more clear. Also i see that other kind of weeds are slowing down - will see in few weeks

Terrible product, does not live up to the standards, very small backyard water feature, put way more than required amount and yet nothing dissipated still have a tremendous amount of algae. This is a terrible product and I highly recommend that nobody buy it. It stinks and I wish I had my money back!

This was recommended to me to The Pond Guy. We had some extensive work done on our pond this past spring, and the people who did the work also said they’d clean our pond… they used a pressure washer. A real no-no, as the spray is too harsh and washes off all the ‘good algae’. A plain garden hose would have sufficed and been far better. Anyway, flash forward 8 weeks and I had the worst string algae ever. So thick… I used a stick to pull up globs every morning, and that didn’t touch the issue. It just got out of hand. Our pond is small – only 500 gallons. I used 1-1/2 ounces - first I cleaned a bucket very well, then dipped it into my pond and collected a bit of pond water. Then I added the Algae D-Solv to the pond water, swished to mix, and gently poured it into our pond. I repeated this every 3 day, for a total of 3 times. After the 3rd day of the 3rd treatment (12 days later), there was NO string algae. None. Of course, throughout the treatment I did have to clean the pond, the filter, and skimmer daily. Also, I have 2 falls, and added 4 bubblers while I treated the pond, for added aeration, which helps. Unfortunately, it left my pond very turbid. I couldn’t see the fish, or anything. Tried water changes – several. Added beneficial bacteria (unnecessary). No help. Finally ordered CrystalClear RapiClear Liquid Flocculent – one treatment did the job. After that, I occasionally treat the string algae, once, which does the trick, and several days later add the flocculent. I have comets and shubunkins, and because I know my pond’s correct volume, they were never harmed, nor were my water lilies, hyacinths, or other pond and bog plants. I also had a couple comet fry, and they are fine. Not a fan of adding anything to my pond. I'm a big believer in letting nature do it's thing. But sometimes the pond needs a bit of human intervention to keep it healthy. UPDATE: The weather has cooled off here, and this product does not work as well in cool/cold weather, BUT it does work - you need to give it time. My string algae started to return so I did 3 treatments, adding the D Solv every 3 days. After the 3rd treatment I just gave the pond a few extra days and sure enough, it's totally clear of string algae once again (average nighttime temps are in the low 50's and I've stopped feeding the fish, of course).

Just a small amount in my pond once every three weeks or so and it keeps the water crystal clear.

This cleared our pond but also killed every goldfish and koi we had. We followed the directions but I would never use this again for a pond that had life in it

Follow the directions implicitly! Figure out how many gallons your pond is and dose accordingly. I didn’t lose any fish or any plants. It started working immediately, so ensure you have proper oxygenation in place prior to using. My pics are water from the fountain in a two week span.
