Haven't tried it as I haven't needed it. The bottom drain takes away most of that stuff and I remove it from the lily pool when I drain it in the fall. Do you have a bottom drain? If not, you might like to add one that sits on top of the liner. http://www.fosterandsmithaquatics.com/prod...cfm?pcatid=5340 Don |

I've tried it, however, I really couldn't tell you if it works or not. If I remember correctly, you have to use it continuously, not just once and it "gets 'er done." It made me nervous to use it because of the oxygen depletion. I have a rock/pebble bottom pond, so it was hard to tell if it worked, plus I didn't have the guts to keep using it as the directions state. |
