THE PROBLEMS YOUR POND CAN HAVE AND HOW POND DYES CAN FIX THIS 

Pond weeds, like all plants, algae and many bacteria, use the energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into organic compounds, most typically, sugars. This can often lead to an algae bloom when plentiful resources allow algae to reproduce very rapidly.

This bloom as well as being unsightly can kill off other pond life, i.e. plants and fish. 

Without sunlight, photosynthesis could not occur and life as we know it could not flourish. By using a non-toxic colorant such as Hydra Blue Dye Liquid in the water, you can partially filter sunlight, thereby thwarting the photosynthetic process for the growth of many aquatic weeds and algae's.

Filtering out UV will slow algae and weed growth while transforming lake and pond water to a gorgeous natural blue finish.

By shading underwater portions of your body of water from sunlight, plant photosynthesis is prevented in bottom dwelling plants and weeds.
