    Q
    Can GreenClean Pro Algaecide be used to affect alkalinity in lieu of lime?
    If it can, at what rates?
    A

    While the GreenClean Pro Algaecide does produce carbonate in the water, which can raise the pH (increase alkalinity) of the treated water naturally, this product is not labeled to be used specifically for this purpose. Therefore, we cannot advise you to use the product for this use. You can contact BioSafe directly for more information at 888-273-3088.

    Q
    Greenhouse algae
    This product was recommended for cleaning algae in a greenhouse. I have a small greenhouse, 10x10. Algae on the floor due to standing water. How much would I use and how would I apply?
    A
    GreenClean Pro Algaecide is applied as a granule, liquid, or foam. If you want to apply as a granule the rate is 1 lb per 1000 sq ft area. You will just sprinkle the area that is wet, if not wet make sure to water in after the application. If you want to make a liquid application, the rate is 0.5 lb to a gallon of water and let it dissolve for at least 5 minutes and then spray on the desired surface. This gallon will cover 1000 sq ft. For a foam application, the rate is the same for the liquid but you will add an alkaline-based foam, the manufacturer suggests BioSafe Systems Bio-Foamer, at a rate of 2-5 oz per gallon then spray on the desired area.

    Q
    Is GreenClean Pro Algaecide safe for koi ponds?
    The GreenClean Plus states it is safe for koi and some products state they are safe for fish but specifically exclude koi fish. What is the difference between GreenClean Pro and GreenClean Plus?
    A

    While GreenClean Pro Algaecide is safe for fish, it would not be safe to use in koi ponds. We do not carry GreenClean Plus Algaecide so would not be able to offer information on how these 2 product compare.

    Unfortunately we do not carry an algaecide to be used in small koi ponds therefore we recommend you talk to a local koi pond supplier.
