PondWorx Lake and Pond Dye - Ultra Concentrated - 1 Quart Blue

Heck yes this stuff works great. I couldn't believe it.1 quart had our pond looking fresh. Pond is almost an acre.

Excellent product a VERY small amount is needed for a small fountain pond, the blue is an excellent blue color. It is exactly as described on Amazon. Good buy.

I have bought many of these. I recommend this to keep the algae down. Do it right away in spring. It kept my 0.8 acre pond blue for quite some time.

Great value. Works perfect and the colour blue adds a nice touch to the pond water.

I have a 7’ x 15’ 1000 gallon cichlid pond in Florida, so needless to say it gets HOT outside and the pond is only about 2’ deep, so the pond water gets pretty warm. Maybe i’m wrong, but I don’t recall it ever getting this hot in there any other summer.. the water temperature has been in the mid 90s for about 2 months and I feel so bad for my fish!!! They have a bridge going across, water lilies (at least the ones that haven’t been fried to death), the house, and a waterfall for shade, but it’s not enough. I looked up “pond shade” and this came up. I shopped around for a while before deciding on this one. I knew it was super concentrated and I knew not to add too much.. but I didn’t read or calculate anything. I added the tiniest bit… I didn’t measure but it was maybe 2 tablespoons and it was way way wayyy too much. I had to drain half the water just to get it a more normal blue. I’m sure it’s normal but now all my fish appear blue lol but that’s probably from the different colors hitting the light and the new reflection refraction whatever.. but i’m fairly confident they aren’t actually blue. My family thinks they are blue lol but im relatively certain they’re not. I’m not netting one to find out bc every time I do that, they don’t trust me 😭 and it takes forever to win it back! One of my older severums has seen better days and has been spending most of her time in one place on the bottom, so i’ll find out if they are tinted or not when I take her out. I’ll have to get used to it, and I can see how it blocks out the (some) sun which was my only reason for getting this… that and the algae. Keeping up with the algae could be a daily ordeal if I felt like doing it everyday. I have a few young electric blue acara that live in the “shallow end” where I put ornaments and other hiding spots, so they have a fighting chance in a pond with full grown aggressive/semi aggressive cichlids (they’re actually a pretty peaceful group), and the ornaments get caked with algae every single day. I use this API barley powder mix and pond algaecide but it still needs weekly maintenance at the very least.. at least cleaning the filter pads and around the ornaments. It lets up around November when it starts to cool off. We have heaters for the winter so it never gets below 75, but I wish I could keep it below 85 in the summer. Hopefully this helps. ps. in the pic my water liles are fried from the sun and probably also the algaecide sorry they look like 💩😭
