BlueZyme™
Aquatic dye with enzymes safely colors and treats water


The BlueZyme spreads into the pond and quickly turns brownish water into a natural blue.In the picture on the right we can see how the aquatic dye, after ten minutes from application, is starting to spread throughout the pond. What was once a dull brown color is quickly being turned into a more natural blue. In a few more minutes the entire pond will be a uniform shade of blue making it much more appealing to swimmers and anyone who prefers to see blue water in the pond.

Ideal for occasions when having a blue pond is essential; i.e.: wedding pictures, bar-b-ques and family gatherings or when young children want to swim but don't like the brown or green water.

But adding BlueZyme is more than aesthetic! The colorant filters out the blue spectrum of light and this reduction in sunlight will greatly improve the general quality of the water; there will be less chance for bottom sediments to be reached by sunlight thus inhibiting algae blooms.

Algae forms due when conditions are just right which include the right mixture of temperature, nutrients and sunlight. By using an aquatic dye you reduce the penetration strength of sunlight and this can assist in reducing green water and algae growth; not only that the addition of BlueZyme™ will instantly add a beautiful shade of blue to the pond or lake which can be a relief if the pond is brown or green.

This aquatic dye also contains beneficial enzymes that assist in degrading organic materials and sludge in the pond which can be one of the factors that cause algae to grow. Beyond being a simple aesthetic enhancement to the water body the use of BlueZyme provides the benefits of microbial enzymes to accelerate the cleanup of the pond.

Often after a single treatment the water, previously green from phytoplankton, will be cleared up dramatically as the lack of sunlight causes the tiny plankton to die. Adding beneficial bacteria like Bacterius 1B alongside the aquatic colorant is also a good idea because the Bacterius 1B will help consume the bottom muck.

Adding BlueZyme™ or aquatic dyes & colorants
Most pond dyes are highly concentrated mixtures that appear almost black when being poured into the water. This allows for treatments of large areas with fairly small quantities. BlueZyme can be added from a boat by slowing pouring the desired amount near the aeration diffusers to aid to mixing the pond dye quickly throughout the pond. It can also be added by simply walking around the pond and putting some in equally around the parameter.

Typical applications are 1 gallon per surface acre 4 feet deep but more can be added to obtain the desired shade of blue. We typically see two to three gallons in a 1 acre pond and sometimes up to five. Depending on the springs in your pond and the rainfall the dye can remain in the pond casting a blue color for up to 6 weeks.

CAUTION:
Aquatic dyes are concentrated and will stain clothing and skin if contact is made of undiluted liquid. Splashing dyes can stain rocks and skin; this is not harmful but care should be taken when applying the colorant. Gloves are recommended.

BlueZyme™ is available in gallon jugs or larger 5 gallon pails.

BlueZyme™ is biodegradable, nonpathogenic and nontoxic.. It is safe for birds, fish, humans and all aquatic life. There are no restrictions on swimming, irrigation or fishing. Allow several hours for complete mixing and the color to be established before adding a second treatment.
