A copper-free, non-foaming algaecide with a built-in clarifier that helps control and prevent algae growth in self-contained fountains and water features.

Product Details

AquaDoc Fountain Algaecide helps control and prevent algae growth in fountains and water features as part of a consistent care routine. The copper-free formula works without metallic additives, helping lower the risk of staining or discoloration on fountain surfaces. It's a practical alternative to fully draining and scrubbing your fountain every time algae starts to show up.

This liquid algaecide is made for self-contained, recirculating fountains and water features. When used as directed, it helps control common algae types including green and green-water algae, string or hair algae, and blanketweed. It works well for routine maintenance and for addressing early signs of algae buildup before they become a bigger cleanup job.

How to use
  1. Add 1 teaspoon (5 mL) per 50 gallons of fountain water.
  2. For visible algae, repeat the dose every 3 days until algae is under control. Physically remove or siphon out dead algae for best results.
  3. For ongoing maintenance, continue dosing every 5 days to weekly as directed on the label.
  4. Use only in self-contained, recirculating fountains and water features where water is contained with no outflow. Never pour treated water down a drain.
  5. Keep birds, pets, and wildlife from drinking or bathing in treated water until it has fully cleared. Treated water is not a wildlife-safe water source.
  6. If your fountain has fish, follow label directions and keep aeration running at all times.
