Alpine Blue™ Aquatic Dye Water Management Solution

Aquatic dye, such as Alpine Blue, not only adds a natural, beautiful color to ponds, lakes, fountains and lagoons, it also serves as a shield which reduces the amount of light penetrating through the water. This is important for two reasons.

  1. As light penetrates the water everything below the water's surface, including all of its aquatic inhabitants, becomes illuminated and thus more visible to predatory birds such as eagles, kingfishers and cranes. The use of an aquatic dye, such as Alpine Blue, effectively reduces the amount of light penetrating through the water, thus reducing the amount of illumination under the water's surface, allowing your fish added protection from airborne predators.
  2. The more light that penetrates the water, the greater chance that unwanted underwater aquatic plants and algae will grow. The screening effect created by Alpine Blue inhibits the process of photosynthesis, which encourages such growth. In fact, if applied early enough in the season, Alpine Blue can actually prevent the growth of undesirable plants and algae.

Alpine Blue is effective at all depths and is proven to inhibit the growth of planktonic (suspended) algae blooms. (Desirable, floating plants such as lilies are not affected as long as they have already surfaced and the concentrated product has not directly contacted the leaves.)
