How to eliminate and prevent algae bloom in your pond?

• Due to the small size of the suspended algae cells filtration media that are too porous may not be able to fully catch and remove them. Premium biological and pressure pond filters, offered by us, such as PondMAX Pressure filter range, Aquascape UltraKlean that have multiple stages of filtration coupled with high output UV lamp help to eliminate algae.
• Providing more shade for the pond’s surface by adding surface plants such as water lilies will reduce the direct sunlight received by the pond and in turn reducing algae bloom.
• Avoid over feeding the fish as the uneaten fish food are one of the major culprits that cause algae bloom. Please also ensure that count of aquatic life within the water body is appropriate for its size. Higher number of fish will generate more fish waste which will disturb the balance within the pond ecosystem without timely filtration.
• Liquid and granular algae treatments retailed by us, such as the product detailed above, will actively treat an outbreak of algae and provide faster results.
