    Hi, and welcome to the forum!

    Many people find that using a dose of Polyquat 60 (the ONLY algaecide that we recommend around here! ) can help retard algae growth over extended periods of time. That's why some people around here close with it during the winter.

    I just bought that! Yes, I have been reading this forums words of wisdom about that algaecide and I applied the initial dose this past weekend. I will continue with maintenance doses and hopefully that will work. If not I will be asking how to get rid of the algae when I return from vacation. Thanks.
