  • Ideal for algae on the surface or in the water column - use Cutrine® Plus Granular Algaecide for deeper waters or on bottom-growing algae
General Information

This product is a liquid copper-based formulation containing ethanolamine chelating agents to prevent the precipitation of copper with carbonates and bicarbonates in the water. This product effectively controls a broad range of algae including: Planktonic (suspended) forms such as the Cyanobacteria (Microcystis, Anabaena & Aphanizomenon), Green algae (Raphidocelis & Cosmarium) Golden algae (Prymnesium parvum) and diatoms (Navicula & Fragilaria); Filamentous (mat-forming) forms such as the Green Algae (Spirogyra, Cladophora, Ulothrix & Rhizoclonium) and Benthic (bottomgrowing) forms such as Chara and Nitella. This product has also been proven effective in controlling the rooted aquatic plant, Hydrilla verticillata. Waters treated with this product may be used for swimming, fishing, further potable water treatment, livestock watering or irrigating turf, ornamental plants or crops after treatment.

Applications & Uses
