Quickest and best product to spray on with a sprayer that dissolves it quickly. I know we use to use karmax when I worked for the ****** but no longer is recommended. But I liked it's results and quickness.. Anything out there work similar that's safe?


Thanks always

Here is something from the Archives. There are numerous things described for dealing with FA.

Yeah Bill I kinda skimmed through te archives, but didn't really find anything or atleast anything mentioned that was comparible to my old ways with karmax and diuron.. I liked those products but have since not read good things about them.. Thanks for the link..

Well I sprayed on the cutrine plus.. I did about 1/2-3/4 if my pond. The FA has turned to a nasty black some has disappeared, also I think my lake looked darker and kinda nasty as whole after the spraying but we got a decent rain yesterday that kinda brightened it up.. Is this the normal process.. And also my biggest question will the aeration I've built really help with this problem? Also about a 1/3 of my pond is 3' or less and I will not be aerating it, will the muck and stuff still breakdown with no diffusers in that direct location?

When I questioned a pond aeration supplier, they said that the system that they'd recommend turned over the pond's total water volume between 3 and 5 times a day. They said it'd help with FA.

The only way to know if the aeration is helping the pond in those areas is to take DO readings at that depth.

I still have to say.. Cutrine Plus doesn't have anything on karmax killing power.. But I guess it'll do..

Yeah I know that now.. I use to use alot of it back when I work for the *****, I wish I could find something comparible but safe, cutrine plus works but I wasn't nearly as impressed as I was the first time I used karmax (10 yrs ago probably)..
