PondBrite (Lake Management)

🛠️ PondBrite

PondBrite is a powerful copper‑based bactericide and algaecide for domestic use in small water bodies. It targets cyanobacteria, algae, and harmful bacteria in ponds, lagoons, reservoirs, fountains, and decorative water features.

⭐ Features & Application Guidelines

• Made in Canada
• Apply in late spring or early summer when algae first appear
• Use every two weeks
• 4 L treats a 5,000‑gallon pond (zero copper) for part of the season depending upon the amount of algae, sun and number of fish
• Effective in both warm and cold temperatures
• Apply the first dose gradually over 2–3 days to allow fish to acclimate
• Monitor copper levels to stay within the safe range (0.4 ppm)
• Compatible with the Ocion Water Sciences app (Android/Google only; Apple support coming soon)

🧭 How to Use PondBrite

1. Test your copper level
Use a copper test kit and note your reading in ppm.

2. Find your dose
Match your copper reading and pond size in the table in the Dosage tab.

3. Add PondBrite
Pour the measured amount evenly around the pond edge or into an area with good circulation.

4. Repeat every two weeks

⚙️ How it Works

Before using PondBrite in water with fish, check alkalinity (above 50 ppm), pH (6.5+), and organic content. Low alkalinity or pH increases copper toxicity. Apply PondBrite near algae growth, typically on the water surface or in shallow areas.
