PP and H2O2 are a quick fix for low DO levels in the water and are used to prevent fish death due to low DO (below 2mg/L at sunrise). For such emergencies, you may use PP and H2O2 while continuing to dose Nualgi after a few days of using PP and H2O2. Ponds being...
Alum may be used if the nutrient levels are very high or if the N:P ratio is unfavorable to diatoms, say less than 5:1. One dose of Alum should be dosed before dosing Nualgi. If there is excess Alum that does it may bind with Nualgi. We therefore recommend a gap of...
Nualgi has been tested in 40 degree F waters with delayed result as biological activity slows down at such temps. Ponds in cooler temps are normally clear. It’s the warmer waters that reveal problematic blooms of undesirable algae. With that said, the best...
