The Dark Side of Pond Algaecides - What You Should Know Before Using One

Many people use algaecides in their ponds to treat algae blooms but there are reasons you may want to try other things first. Copper-based algaecides come with a few tradeoffs that you really need to know about before using them.
There is no doubt that in some ponds and algaecide will be necessary. But some ponds could do just fine (and possibly better) without them.

One other comment on using algaecides, specifically in fish ponds. If the algae growth is heavy and widespread, it will be beneficial and protective for fish to have aeration going during treatment. In hot weather, it may also help to treat just segments of the algae at a time to lessen the risk of oxygen depletion in the pond. As algae (or any plant) dies, it will pull oxygen from the water.
