Biological dye to block plant growth by limiting photosynthesis. Aquipond Blue Marine® is a concentrated biological dye designed to naturally limit the growth of algae and aquatic plants in ponds, lakes, basins, and bodies of water.
By coloring the water with an elegant navy blue shade, Aquipond Blue Marine® reduces the penetration of light rays necessary for photosynthesis. Algae and aquatic plants then have less energy to grow.
Result:
- More aesthetically pleasing and visually uniform water
- Gradually reduces algae growth
- Limits many invasive aquatic plants
- Improves the perception of water clarity
- A simple solution to implement
Why use Aquipond Blue Marine®?
Unlike a chemical herbicide or algaecide, Aquipond Blue Marine® works physically by filtering some wavelengths used during photosynthesis.
This action helps limit the development of:
- filamentous algae
- microalgae responsible for green water
- cyanobacteria (blue-green algae)
- many submerged aquatic plants
While maintaining a more natural and pleasant body of water to observe.
Advantages of this solution:
- Biological solution non-toxic to humans, divers, and fish.
- Biodegradable and natural
- Easy to use with water-soluble sachet
- Improves water turbidity
- Low cost per hectare
Aquipond Blue Marine is a specific dye for ponds, lakes, basins, and bodies of water. It functions by blocking Ultraviolet rays, thus preventing the growth of aquatic plants and algae.
Aquipond Blue Marine stops the growth of plants and algae by blocking light, especially the sun's rays used by plants for photosynthesis.
Commonly affected & treated species:
Aquatic plants
- Myriophyllum
- Canadian elodea
- Egeria densa
- Najas major
- Ceratophyllum
- Characeae
- Heterophylly
Algae
- Filamentous algae
- Microscopic algae
- Cyanobacteria
- Green water
Effective on filamentous algae and microscopic algae such as blue-green algae or cyanobacteria. Marine blue is a 100% concentrated organic blue dye.
- 1 sachet per 1,000 m² to treat algae for 4 to 6 weeks.
- 2 sachets per 1,000 m² to treat aquatic plants for 4 to 6 weeks.

Recommended dosage
To limit algae growth
- 1 sachet per 1,000 m² of water surface.
To limit the growth of aquatic plants
- 2 sachets per 1,000 m² of water surface.
Average duration of effectiveness:
4 to 6 weeks depending on sunlight, rainfall, water renewal, and characteristics of the water body.
How to use Aquipond Blue Marine®?
Simply place the water-soluble sachet directly into the water. The sachet gradually dissolves and releases the dye throughout the entire body of water.
For best results, start applications early in spring before plants reach full growth. Aquipond Blue Marine® is particularly effective when used as part of a comprehensive strategy including:
- good oxygenation of the water
- regular maintenance of organic matter
- the use of suitable bacteria
- a limitation of nutrient inputs responsible for algae blooms
