Preparation:
- Turn off the pump or waterfall temporarily to allow the product to remain in place and maximize its effectiveness.
- Ensure the target surfaces (rocks, waterfalls, pond edges, etc.) are wet to aid the application process.
Application:
- Sprinkle Aquascape EcoBlast Algaecide evenly over the algae-affected areas.
- Focus on ensuring the product has direct contact with the algae for immediate results.
Waiting Period:
- Allow the product to work for 10-20 minutes before taking further steps.
Post-Application:
- Resume water circulation by turning the pump or waterfall back on.
- Use a brush or rinse the treated areas to remove dead algae if necessary.
Important Considerations:
- Dosage: Always follow the manufacturer’s dosage instructions to avoid over-application.
- Aeration: Ensure proper aeration during treatment, as the decomposition of algae may temporarily lower oxygen levels in the water.
- Safety: Avoid applying the product to areas where beneficial plants or sensitive aquatic life may be impacted.
By following these steps, you can achieve effective algae control and maintain the health of your water feature.
