  String Algae Buster SAB String algae buster - SAB pond bacteria is an all natural and fish safe used to control string algae in koi ponds, waterfalls and watergardens. String algae buster is formulated to help reduce watergarden maintenance and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and enzymes that will keep water clear and keep algae down to a minimum. String Algae Buster will assist in the breakdown and reduction of string algae in the stream, waterfalls and pond. SAB - Stream and Pond clean works by breaking down the micro-nutrients that algae uses as food. SAB will not harm pond fish or plants or disrupt the balance of the watergarden ecosystem.
Also consider using our rock and waterfall cleaner as a first line of defense spot treatment. It works on contact to kill algae on rocks and waterfalls and scrubs away dirt and debris. Use rock and waterfall cleaner for spot treatment of bad string algae areas and string SAB - Stream and Pond clean for longterm control.
Directions:
Fill a small bucket with pond water. Add one tablespoon of String algae buster extreme to the bucket for every 100 gallons of water in the pond. Stir the mixture until the SAB has dissolved this will make a white/brownish mixture. The mixture can then be spread in the water around the edges of pond and in the stream. The water may become cloudy immediately after the mixture is added to the pond. This is normal and should clear up within a few hours. The pond should be treated 2-3 times during the first month or once every 10-14 days. String algae buster should be added to the pond once a month every month thereafter.
