How much to add to the fountain?

We have a waterless pond with three waterfalls. It holds somewhere between 4 and 500 gallons of water. What is the ratio we should be using to put into the pump area so that it can be circulated throughout the fountain? We have lots of algae on the fountain area itself, and down on the rocks where the water hits.

Answer:

Cutrine Plus is intended for large bodies of water and cannot be used in fountains. At the moment, we don't carry anything labeled to treat algae in a fountain. You may need to check your local stores to see what they have that may help.

We were able to find a couple of articles that may offer other tips to care for your fountain:
