Review: Magic - I received this 10 days ago and have treated twice, my little pond is crystal clear. I was almost ready to give up, I could not keep it clear before I tried this and swapped out the filter sponge for a layer of filter floss. So happy.
Review: worked well for what I needed - I used this to clear the water tank on a WaterRower rowing machine. I misread the instructions for the machine (did not add the requisite water purification tablet in a timely fashion). Algae had grown in the tank but after adding 1/4 cup of the APE PondCare the algae disappeared in a few days. I did change the water before treatment. Now I add the recommended water purification tablets and the water is crystal clear once more. This stuff works.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have a small outdoor fountain that I would like to keep algae free, products need to be dog & cat safe. any ideas?**
A: I can only say that this is non-toxic to fish and frogs.  I don't know whether, if a dog or cat were to drink water that had this algae control in it, it would make the dog or cat sick or not.  I would suggest you call the producer of the product.  I use it all the time in my pond, and on one occasion I did call the company that produces it.  Surely, they could tell you if it's safe to use around dogs and cats.

**Q: Is it safe for bees, when used in an outdoor fountain?!**
A: I really don’t know. I notice that bees take water from a chlorinated pools and muddy puddles. Didn’t hurt my fish.

**Q: Can I use this in my fish tank**
A: you could, but I wouldn't unless your tank is at least 150 gallons. Controlling the proper mix would be touchy in smaller amounts. There are better products for aquarium use to accomplish the same thing.

**Q: Can i use this in my 40 gallon tank? It does have the little moss balls**
A: Yes, but reduce the dose to treat 40 gallons
