Description
Coptrol Aquatic Algaecide
If your dam, pond, or tank has turned into a green mess, Coptrol will sort it out fast. It’s a commercial-grade algaecide that’s safe, effective, and Australian made. No stress about harming fish, pets, or plants – just clear, healthy water again.
Why You’ll Love It
-
Kills problem algae fast – including toxic blue-green algae – often within 72 hours.
-
Safe for use in drinking water, irrigation, livestock, fish ponds, and hydroponics.
-
APVMA approved and trusted across Australia for all types of aquatic algae.
-
Non-corrosive formula – won’t damage pumps, pipes, or fountains.
-
Works in just about any water body: tanks, troughs, ponds, lakes, dams, and canals.
-
Environmentally smart – less copper released into the water than traditional treatments.
How to Use
Coptrol is simple to apply.
-
For tanks and troughs: Use 2–5 mL per 1,000 L of water.
-
For ponds and dams: Apply 4.2–8.4 L per 1,000 m² (at 1 m depth) or 5–10 L per 1 ML of water.
-
Dilute 1 part Coptrol to 10–20 parts water, then spray evenly across the surface.
-
For big jobs, treat one-third of the water at a time and wait 10–15 days before moving on.
Apply in bright sunlight on a calm, wind-free day for best results. Most algae clear up in 3–10 days. If it’s a stubborn bloom, a second round might be needed.
A Few Handy Tips
-
Always check your water’s hardness if you’ve got fish – above 50 ppm is ideal.
-
Avoid treating if the water’s under 16°C or if waterfowl are feeding on the algae.
-
Keep using Coptrol monthly as a preventative – half the initial dose usually does the trick.
The Bottom Line
Coptrol is the easiest and safest way to reclaim clear, healthy water – from stock troughs to ornamental lakes. Fast, reliable, and Aussie made. You’ll wish you’d tried it sooner.
