SECLEAR ALGAECIDE
AND WATER QUALITY ENHANCER®
SeClear is the first aquatic algaecide and water quality enhancer in one
designed to replace routine algaecide treatments. SeClear provides effective
control of a broad-range of algae species while reducing in-water phosphorus
levels with each application.
The result is longer lasting control, improved water quality and aesthetics
with reduced maintenance through time. The mode of action for SeClear is
uptake through the algal cells where the copper ion inhibits photosynthesis
providing a fast-acting result.

CAPTAIN® LIQUID COPPER ALGAECIDE
Captain is a chelated copper product that is effective on both filamentous and
planktonic algae in a wide range of fresh water applications. Algae control
occurs in 3 to 7 days following a Captain application and there are no
restrictions on treated water, even immediately after use for swimming,
fishing, watering livestock, irrigating turf or ornamental plants.
The mode of action for Captain is uptake through the algal cells where the
copper ion inhibits photosynthesis providing a fast-acting result. Algae is an
aquatic plant that can grow anywhere moisture, light and nutrients combine
to support growth. You certainly can't control how wet your pond is; and
there's not much you can do about how much sunlight hits the water. You can,
however, avoid fertilizing near the pond or anywhere rainwater runoff may
enter the water.

Alum Lake Treatments
Every lake/pond is unique. If the water is clear, with little submerged weed growth, we’d call it
“clean” and its primary productivity would be low. You might think of it as starving for plant
nutrients. If the water is turbid, due to planktonic algae, its productivity would be high. This would
be considered bad if you wanted to swim in it. It could be considered good if you were using it for
aquaculture. To some small farm ponds and fishing ponds that are 100% on private property,
with no outflow, the owners actually add phosphorus to increase their productivity so they will
grow more fish.
If you want to have clear water, you must reduce the productivity. In short, you need to withhold
nutrients that feed the algae. Phosphorus is typically the nutrient that can limit plant and algae
growth in freshwater lakes. To reduce the phosphorus level is to reduce the plant and algae
growth, resulting in clear water. Phosphorus, nitrogen and other nutrients enter the lake from
four sources:
1. Watershed runoff.
2. Sediment nutrient cycling.
3. Atmospheric loading.
4. Point source (typically sources known by the owner—can be things such
as fish food, cleaning stations, fertilizer additions, etc.).
To identify and quantify the sources of phosphorus, it is necessary to do a total nutrient budget.
Since most people can’t afford that professional service, they typically ask a limnologist or other
lake expert to “eyeball it” and give them their recommendation. Some remedial action can be
inexpensive and other suggestions can be cost-prohibitive. If the low-cost fixes are not sufficient
to bring about the desired improvement in water clarity, consider an alum treatment to reduce
phosphorus in the water and reduce its cycling out of the sediments. It is probably cheaper
than you think.
Phosphorus binds tightly to the alum, which becomes incorporated into the sediments of the lake.
It is totally safe from a human, animal and environmental standpoint. Aluminum, like silica sand,
is one of the most common elements on the face of the earth. It is used in cooking and drinking
water filtration.

How Barley Straw Works
How much barley straw to use?
Research through Aquatic Weeds Research Unit UK indicates that barley straw is highly effective in
the control of algae. How about that? An organic approach to algae control! It takes six to eight
weeks for barley straw to become active after it is placed in moving water. After that, barley straw
will remain an active algaecide for approximately six months. Microbial growth, oxygen and warm
water temperatures activate the decomposition of the straw. With sufficient water flow through the
straw, lignins oxidize into homic acids and, with sunlight and oxygen, destroy algae, with no effect
on higher plant and aquatic life.
Barley straw is most effective in shallow (1 m) water with sunlight and good circulation.
Clear water needs less straw, but with turbid, muddy water and less sunlight, more straw is
required. Low temperatures are less effective.
Barley straw decomposes slowly, so its oxygen demand does not cause problems unless an
excessive amount of straw is used. Stagnant water will go anaerobic inside the straw bundle,
killing the microbes, so be sure to keep the water moving.
NITRAFIX FOR AQUACULTURE
Water surface area is used to calculate dosage. In still water ponds, the minimum quantity of
straw needed to control algae is 2.5 grams (.09 oz) of straw per square meter of water surface. In
water with a severe algae problem, high first treatments up to 50 grams (1.8 oz) per square meter
may be required. Start with small quantities and monitor effects. Barley straw may be prestarted

PONDZILLA BLACK
NEW!
PondZilla Black is an all-natural biochemical catalyst that enhances the breakdown of proteins and
complex carbohydrates found in aquatic plants. PondZilla Black releases specific biostimulants that allow
the naturally-occurring bacteria and fungi to take over degradation of the dead flora and fixation of
available nutrients. This product is designed specifically to complement algaecide treatments for aquatic
plants and filamentous green algae like Pithophora. Although these products do not kill aquatic plants or
algae, the molecular make up of PondZilla Black will boost algaecides so they can penetrate the resting
structures while it enables naturally-occurring bacteria to degrade dead organic matter. This treatment is
followed up with a dose of MD Pellets to digest what is left. Applications include ponds, lakes, canals,
retention and koi ponds, hatcheries, raceways, and golf course ponds.
PondZilla Black works over a wide pH range, but for best results use citric acid or a low-pH surfactant to
adjust tank mix to a pH of 4 to 6:
Monster Dose: 15 gallons per acre
Regular Dose: 3 gallons per acre initially and 1-3 gallons per month thereafter
Pollen Dose: 2 gallons per acre sprayed on the surface
Leaf Degradation: 1-3 gallons per acre per month followed by 10 lbs of MD Pellets

MD Pellets are slow-release pellets that sink into and degrade muck that builds up in the bottom of fish
ponds. This product is a nice alternative to physical cleaning of the ponds. They contain safe and
beneficial bacteria, which will not harm aquatic species, fish, waterfowl, or people. This product will also
reduce sulfide and mercaptan odors found in muck. Applications include lakes, decorative ponds, retention
ponds, shorelines, aquaculture, and golf courses.
MD Pellets work best when water temperature is 60° F (17°C) to 130°F (54°C). The warmer it is the faster
they reproduce and digest sludge:
Traditional Dose: Feed 10 lb to 25 lb per surface-acre once per month depending on depth of muck or
extent of surface debris.
Super Dose: For ponds or lakes where they would like to degrade up to 1 foot per month. Feed 50 lb per

Bacteria Notes
WHAT IS THEIR SIZE?
That’s 100,000,000,000 in a milliliter! (For instructions on counting method, contact us or IET.)
WHAT DO THEY DO?
Some bacteria form floc, the slippery material one feels on a tank wall. Although many involved in
water purification may get trapped in the floc they typically flow through the system. The bacteria
on a biofilter are immobile, and water movement is essential to ensure that food is brought into
contact with them.
There are thousands of strains and two major groups. Heterotrophs use organic carbon (as we do).
They are elongated, often rod-shaped bacteria, typically .2 µ (micron) wide and 4–6 µ long.
Autotrophs use inorganic carbon (carbonate or carbon dioxide) as plants do. They are cocci-shaped
(round to oval) bacteria, typically .2–.4 µ in diameter.
Like all other living things, they have a biological directive to eat and reproduce. They must
compete with each other and with predators. Each strain does only one job, so it takes a
coordinated team of strains to purify water, for example.
Bacteria work best when the following conditions exist: pH between 6 and no higher than 8.5
(optimal is 7.5), temperature between 34ºF (1ºC) and 104ºF (40ºC) (optimal is 86ºF/30ºC),
alkalinity above 100 and oxygen above 3 ppm (optimum is above 5 for nitrification); some
bacteria will utilize oxygen from any nitrate when there is no oxygen.
WHAT DO THEY EAT?
An individual strain may digest a specific type of fat, certain proteins, carbohydrates, cellulose
or hydrocarbons. Together the right team can eat sludge, animal wastes, etc.
HOW FAST DO THEY GROW?
A population of heterotrophic bacteria can double every 20 minutes. Nitrobacter can double every
8 hours. This rapid reproduction (with mutations) quickly evolves new strains.
WHERE CAN YOU BUY THEM?
From Pentair AES. Bacta-Pur® bacteria are guaranteed to have a minimum of 1011 cells/mL.
DO THEY MOVE AROUND?
WHERE DO THEY COME FROM?
Bacteria can live in most places, but all strains are not everywhere all the time. Water purification
cannot be optimized if all the required strains are not present. Bioaugmentation with Bacta-Pur®
guarantees the presence of the balanced team. If a proper environment exists, they will multiply.
HOW ARE THEY ELIMINATED?
Freezing can kill over 99% of some strains, such as Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter. Spore-forming
bacteria are less affected, at least the spores survive. UV light, disinfectants, heat, acids,
bacteriacides and oxidizers (ozone, chlorine, hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate)
will also kill them.
WHAT IS THE RELATION BETWEEN LIGHT AND BACTERIA?
Light is not only unnecessary for the growth of beneficial bacteria that improve water quality, but
also will inhibit the growth of nutrifiers, particularly Nitrobacter. Biological filters should be kept
in the dark. Ultraviolet light is used to kill bacteria. The toxicity of the UV light is a function of the
wavelength, intensity and exposure duration.

Mixing Artificial Seawater
Artificial seawater is a complex mix of many purified salts formulated to have a composition
similar to natural seawater when dissolved in fresh water. Seawater cannot be evaporated to a dry
salt and then be reconstituted by adding water. It just doesn’t work, so artificial blends were
developed. There are many formulas, each with its own characteristics. The quality of a brand of
sea salt is dependent on the formula, the quality of the raw materials and the uniformity of the
blending. The salinity is the sum of all of the dissolved ions. Natural seawater is generally
considered to have a salinity of 35 parts per thousand (ppt) or grams of salt per kilogram of water.
Several mistakes are common when calculating how much sea salt to use. First, do not assume
that ppt is the same as grams per liter (g/L). Because seawater is heavier than fresh water,
this assumption causes an error of about 2.5% lower salinity than expected. A second, more
serious error is to assume that the salt mix is anhydrous (water free), since all brands of sea salt
use some hydrated salts (for cost and solubility reasons). This causes an error of about 12% lower
salinity than expected. A third source of error is adding the salt to the desired volume, as the
volume increases about 1% after adding the salt. What this means is adding 35 g of sea salt to a
liter of water (1,000 g) will result in a 1.01 liter solution at 29.1 ppt salinity!
Gallon designations for commercial brands are not calculated at 35 ppt. There is no standard.
The weight per fifty gallon package varies among brands from 13.7 lbs to 16 lbs, giving salinities
between 27 and 32 ppt.
For calculation purposes, it takes 41.8 grams of sea salt mix to one liter fresh water for 35 ppt
salinity. To calculate salt needed for lower salinities, multiply the 41.8 g/L by the ratio of the
desired salinity, divided by 35 ppt.
Example 1: To mix at 32 ppt solution, solve: 41.8 g/L x 32 ppt/35 ppt = 38.2 g/L.
Example 2: To mix a 1,000 gallon batch at 32 ppt, multiply the 38.2 g/L (from example one)
x 3.78 (liters/gallon) x 1,000 to get 144,396 g or 318 lbs (144 kg) of sea salt.
When purchasing and mixing sea salts, remember to base mix ratios on the weight of salt mix,
not the advertised gallon ratings. The weight is the legal unit of measure.

form a nontoxic, stable substance that does not interfere with beneficial
bacteria and can be oxidized by nitrifying bacteria in the biofilter. AmQuel® Plus
uses no sodium thiosulfate, contains no formaldehyde and is nontoxic to all fish
and invertebrates (not FDA-approved for use with food fish). Water treated with
AmQuel® Plus cannot be accurately tested using Nessler’s-type ammonia tests
or Winkler-type D.O. kits. The amounts of toxic components removed by
AmQuel® Plus vary depending on water conditions. Recommended dosage is 1
teaspoon (5 mL) for each 10 gallons. This dose will remove chlorine, 1.2 ppm of
ammonia, 2 ppm of nitrite, 13 ppm of nitrate. A 16-oz. bottle treats 960 gallons.

SL313
Hauling Tanks
To successfully transport fish requires an understanding of the physiological aspects of what
happens to the fish as well as their temporary environment—the hauling box water. If the fish
die shortly after delivery, it's usually the hatchery that takes much of the blame but, all too
often, it is the hauler's fault.
Typically, at least 24 hours before the fish are to be moved, they are taken off feed. This
reduces fouling of the hauling tank water. The fish are then counted by weighing (a pretty
accurate method) and placed into the appropriate chamber of the hauling truck. It is here that
attention to detail can make the difference between a good delivery and a debacle.
Overcrowding can describe symptoms that occur from having too much of something (ammonia
or CO2) or not having enough of something (oxygen). For average travel times, the general rule
of thumb is no greater than 2 lbs of fish per gallon of water. Some fish, like muskie or walleye,
do better at only 1 lb of fish per gallon. These densities typically require the use of pure
oxygen systems over the agitator or compressor/diffuser aerators. However, short trips with
cool water (55ºF or below) will allow higher carrying densities with just an aerator. We've heard
of fish haulers carrying up to 5 lbs of catfish per gallon of water on short trips to the
processors! Remember that these fish are not intended to live very long.
Cooler water temperatures play an important part in keeping fish in their best condition. As
cold-blooded animals, their metabolism slows as the temperature drops. This means oxygen
intake decreases, along with ammonia and carbon dioxide. Of course, just the opposite
happens as the temperature increases.
To counter the stress associated with fish transport, many haulers rely upon salt to boost the
fish's electrolytes and enhance mucous production, which will ward off bacterial infections
and parasites. A rough rule of thumb for dosage rates is 3 lbs of noniodized salt per 100
gallons of water. For nonfood fish, haulers often use anesthetics, ammonia removers
and defoamers.
There are three main types of oxygen replenishment techniques:
Agitators/aspirators, compressors with air diffusers and pure oxygen. Agitators/aspirators rely
upon a mechanical disturbance to splash water or create bubbles to drive oxygen into the
water. They are not very efficient, take up space in the tank and may have mechanical
problems because of exposure to the elements. Compressors with air diffusers are the most
popular method of aerating low stocking densities or for short haul trips. Easily sized for the
situation, diffuser systems rely upon bubble size and bubble contact time to transfer oxygen.
If more oxygen is needed, more diffusers are added. You can never "over aerate" by putting too
much air into the water. The maximum stocking density for this type of aeration is 1 lb of fish
per gallon of water.
Pure oxygen systems are intended for high stocking densities, long trips and sensitive fish.
To give you an idea of how well pure oxygen works, remember that bags of tropical fish are
shipped around the world for periods of time up to 30 hours in a plastic bag containing 1⁄3
water and 2⁄3 oxygen. The key to pure oxygen efficiency in the hauling tank is in the diffuser.
The finer the bubble, the better the diffusion into the water. The best micropore diffusers now
on the market are less than 50% efficient in their ability to transfer oxygen into the water at
these shallow depths. Simply put, for every dollar's worth of oxygen bought, you get fifty cents
worth of it in the water. But it does allow very high carrying capacities, where the cost is far
outweighed by the return in healthy fish delivered. Larger trucks and/or longer runs can benefit
from the compact nature of liquid oxygen.
