About API POND ALGAEFIX Algae Control 32-Ounce Bottle
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
72% praised for its ability to control algae growth, though 28% noticed some regrowth.
I used algaecide and barley extract in combination and it worked well for me.
After using the treatment for three weeks, we noticed algae in the gravel bed. We followed the recommendations and ran the aerator and filter for 24 hours. Unfortunately, the next day all our fish had died.
69% found it easy to dose and apply
I find the pond cleaner easy to use and reliable for maintaining water clarity with consistent results.
Algaefix is very easy to use and I can see the results the day after treatment.
The treatment is fast, easy to dose, and cost-effective.
After six days, I could see my fish and the product worked for me. To get the best results, I recommend having a quality pond filter and a good pump.
65% appreciated its safe and gentle formula, while 35% reported some fish stress.
I have been using this product for 3 years and have not faced any problem with algae bloom in my 1600 gal pond. I also have plants and large goldfish in the pond and never had a problem.
I am concerned that continued use of this product may stress or even kill my fish, indicating that it may not be gentle enough for aquatic animals.
68% praised for its ability to eliminate unpleasant odors, though 32% still detected some lingering smells.
I tried using the product multiple times to remove the odor from the aquarium, but it did not work. The problem persisted.
75% praised for its ability to clear cloudy water, but 25% noticed it didn't work as well with heavy algae blooms.
After putting the first dose of the treatment, my water clarity improved by 70% the very next day. Now, on day 3, it is practically crystal clear.
After adding 1 ounce of the treatment, the water turned dark blue and I couldn't see the bottom of the pond.
