AlgaphiteBio is a bacterial inoculant designed for the prevention and treatment of blanketweed and other aquatic algae in ponds and lakes.
AlgaphiteBio contains six species of naturally occurring bacteria which feed directly on phosphates and nitrates in the aquatic environment, reducing the availability of these nutrients and therefore restricting the growth of blanketweed and algae.
AlgaphiteBio is available in two easy-to-use formulations which can be selected depending on the size of the water body. A liquid treatment is available for smaller bodies of water. For larger pools and lakes, the biodegradable sachets can be used.
