  • We would suggest you wait 3 weeks for the Clear Waters to take effect and then check the clarity of the water, if you still feel you need to do a water change then just try to do a partial one. If you have a filter then this should be removing the debris.

  • The bacteria in Clear Waters is non pathogenic and occur in any natural water body so will cause no harm to fish or wildlife.

• Should I stop treating Clear Waters in winter?

  • In lower temperatures algae tends to grow a lot slower and although there is no set minimum temperature that Clear Waters stops being effective, while algae is growing at a reduced rate they may absorb less of the active ingredient that is in Clear Waters making it less efficient. However we have good results from a water temperature of 10̊ C and above. We would recommend for optimum results that you dose when your pond is sitting above this temperature.
