Is their any difference between Rodeo and Roundup (typically used for weed control in fields) other than the price ? They both say active ingredient is glyphosate.

Rodeo is approved for aquatic use, Roundup is not.

Rodeo is approved for aquatic use, Roundup is not. I have heard that -- but if both have the same ingredient, what makes one approved for aquatic use and one not ?

If you look at the label, it only tells you what the active ingredient is. It doesn't say what the rest of the stuff is, and that's where the problem lies. The Glyphosate has been tested and approved for pond use, the remaining percentage of stuff in the container has not. Since the remaining stuff in the container is not listed, there's no way for us to determine what it is. It's all the rest of the stuff that is in the container that makes it not approved for pond use, not the Glyphosate.
