Description
Fast, Practical Control for Algae-Heavy Water
GreenClean PRO Granular Algaecide 50 lb gives you a fast, visible way to knock down algae without the handling complexity of liquid treatments. The granular format lets you place product exactly where blooms are active, whether along shorelines, across surface mats, or in targeted zones. This makes it easier to respond quickly to problem areas while maintaining control over how much product is used and where it goes, especially in larger ponds and managed water systems.
