GreenClean Organic Algae Control
How Does It Work?
GreenClean is not a bacteria based product. It is a hydrogen-peroxide powder base that activates when it hits a wet surface.
Finally, a Worry-Free Algaecide that Works Instantly on Even your Toughest Algae. Unlike other aquatic algaecides on the market today, GreenClean works on contact to control algae (especially String Algae) in water gardens, ormanental ponds, fountains and other water features. It is activated by water and safe for all animals once it is in liquid form. GreenClean does not harm fish and aquatic life and starts working instantly. GreenClean immediately begins fighting algae blooms, releasing vital oxygen into the water as it biodegrades. SAFE for Koi and other pond fish and Aquatic Plants. It is recommended that you rinse it off the plant leaves to avoid potential burning.

Calculations for Water Volume of Ponds , Streams & Waterfalls
Pond Water Volume
(Length x Width x Average Depth) x 7.48 = Water Volume of Pond in gallons
1 cubic ft. = 7.48 gallons of water
Example: Pond Measures: 11’L x16’W x 2’AD
(11'L x 16'W x 2'AD) x 7.48 = 2,634 Gallons of water
(The addition of rocks and gravel will lessen the actual water volume beacuse of displacement)
Water Volume in a Stream
(Length x Width x Depth) x 7.78 = Water Volume of Stream in Gallons
Example: Stream Measures: 15'L x 3'W x 2"D
First Calculate Depth in feet not inches: 1" = 0.12' so ... 2"D = 0.24'D
(15'L x 3"W x 0.24'D) x 7.48 = 81 Gallons of Water
Water Volume in Waterfalls = Same as Streams
