SeClear Algaecide and Water Quality Enhancer™ is the first aquatic algaecide and water quality enhancer in one, designed to replace routine algaecide treatments. SeClear provides effective control of a broad-range of algae species while reducing in-water phosphorus levels with each application.
With SeClear the result is longer lasting control, improved water quality and aesthetics with reduced maintenance through time. Water treated with SeClear may be used for drinking, swimming, fishing, watering livestock and for irrigated crops, turf, fairways, putting greens and ornamental plants immediately following treatment.
The mode of action for SeClear is uptake through the algal cells where the copper ion inhibits photosynthesis providing a fast-acting result. SeClear liquid algaecide is the newest technology to also remove phosphorus from the water column and increase water clarity while controlling the algae.
Algae is an aquatic plant that can grow anywhere moisture, light and nutrients combine to support growth. You certainly can't control how wet your pond is; and there's not much you can do about how much sunlight hits the water. You can, however, avoid fertilizing near the pond or anywhere rainwater runoff may enter the water.
SeClear can be applied before algae is present at a rate of 1 to 2 gallons per 1 acre foot of water every 30 days as a preventative approach. SeClear can also be applied if algae is present at a rate of 3 to 5 gallons per 1 acre foot of water, spraying no more then 1/3 of your total surface of the pond. Treating all algae across the entire surface area at one time can cause oxygen depletion and result in harm to your fish. For severe algae infestations, limit treatment to 1/3 of the water surface when the water temperature is between 65°F and 85°F. The remaining two 1/3 fractions of the body of water should be treated at 7 day intervals.
SeClear is most effective when it is applied in bright, early morning sunlight under calm conditions when water temperature is at least 60°F. Apply at the first sign of an algae bloom, if possible. Algae control will occur in 3 to 7 days following application. Larger mats should be broken apart before treatment with high-pressure water or a flat tool. Retreat when regrowth appears.

Weeds Controlled with this Product
Also known as “pond scum” or “moss,” this type of algae can form dense, hair-like mats on the water’s surface. If left untreated, the mats can cover the entire surface of the pond. There are many species of filamentous algae and often more than one species will be present at the same time in the pond.
Also known as: Scum; water net; frog spittle; moss
Muskgrass is often mistaken for a vascular plant, but is actually a form of algae. It grows most commonly in shallow water where the nutrient levels are high. Its rough texture and strong, musty odor, almost garlic-like, easily distinguishes it when pulled from the water.
Pithophora belongs to the family of filamentous green algae. It may be found growing on the bottom or in dense mats on the surface of ponds. This algae is often described as resembling a tangled mass of cotton or wool-like growth which is very course to the touch. It may range in color from lime green to a dark greenish brown. The surface mats generally form in warmer weather when gas bubbles, produced by the plant, are trapped within the dense algal growth, causing them to become buoyant. Disturbance of these mats by high wind or heavy rain events may cause them to temporarily sink to the bottom. This often gives a false impression that the growth has "disappeared", only to have it return to the surface within several days.
Also known as “blue-green” algae, this type of algae is actually millions of microscopic plants that give the pond a “pea-soup” appearance. If left untreated, natural die-off in the fall may cause a fish kill.
