Alg-Stop – Effective Solution Against String Algae
Detailed Description:
When Alg-Stop is added to the water, it introduces a substance that, thanks to a carrier compound, is quickly absorbed by the algae. The carrier serves only to facilitate the absorption of the active ingredient by the algae, while simultaneously blocking the intake of essential nutrients, preventing further algae growth.
Alg-Stop penetrates the algae and dissolves their calcareous skeleton, causing them to decompose and be trapped by the pond filter. The product contains no ammonium compounds or metallic salts, making it completely safe for pond inhabitants.
Alg-Stop works at all temperatures and is harmless to fish, plants, and filter bacteria. It can be safely used in swimming ponds, with visible effects typically appearing within 2 to 4 weeks.
