Q&As

Q: How much to use in 1/3 of an acre 6-11 feet deep

a month ago
1 Answer
  • AI-generated, Human-approved
    A: For a 1/3 acre pond, you should use approximately 1.33 quarts (about 42.6 oz) of colorant. One gallon treats up to 4 acre-feet, so for a pond with an average depth of 4 feet, 1/3 gallon (1.33 quarts) is the standard dosage.

Q: Can this be used in a pond aof 1/4 acre and ranges from 3 ft to 12 ft deep

a month ago
1 Answer
  • AI-generated, Human-approved
    A: Yes, you can use this colorant in a 1/4 acre pond. For a pond of that size, the recommended dosage is approximately 1 quart (32 oz) for a normal blue tint, though you may use up to 40 oz if you prefer a darker appearance due to the depth.

Q: Does it kill duckweed

2 months ago
2 Answers
  • A: Howdy neighbor! Applied Biochemists Blue Bayou Pond Colorant is a cosmetic water dye and will not kill or control duckweed. Because duckweed floats directly on the surface of your pond, it receives full, unfiltered sunlight and completely bypasses the light-blocking effects of the dye.

Q: Can it be used in pools

2 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Howdy neighbor! Applied Biochemists Blue Bayou Pond Colorant cannot be used in chlorinated swimming pools. Because this product is formulated specifically for natural or manmade lakes and ponds, the harsh chlorine, shock, and filtration systems in a swimming pool will rapidly oxidize and destroy the colorant.

Q: How long does it last in 90 degree weather? Two acre pond spring fed, very little flow.

2 months ago
1 Answer
  • AI-generated, Human-approved
    A: This colorant typically lasts between 30 and 60 days. Reviewers have noted that the color can last all summer or even up to six months in ponds with no outlet, though heavy rain or high evaporation in southern climates may affect its longevity.

Q: We put a red solo low cup full of blue Bayou in a 50 x 120‘ pond approximately 4 to 5 feet deep. it went from muddy Brown to like a aqua green in two days is that good normal or do I need more? Thank You

3 months ago
1 Answer
  • AI-generated, Human-approved
    A: It is normal for muddy water to initially appear emerald green after application. For a 100' x 100' pond, the recommended dosage is 1 quart (32 oz) for a normal blue tint, or up to 40 oz for a darker appearance. You may need more colorant to achieve your desired blue shade.

Product was a gift as I was wondering about pond dyes. The day was windy and water was turbid. Didn't think I would see much of a difference. After about an hour of pouring it in, I went back and it looked great.

Highly recommend Blue Bayou!

4 years ago
My pond is a watershed pond. If the rain doesn't fill it, it will evaporate quickly, especially here is the south where we are lacking in rain. I had a cookout planned and the water was very muddy looking. Put about 1/2 gallon in my 1 &1/2 acre pond and it turned blue. Looked great for the cookout. This is about the 4th time I have used Blue Bayou and it doesn't harm the fish, turtles or geese.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Blue Water!

We love this stuff! We've bought it for our pond for the last few years. It not only makes the water a beautiful blue, but also does a great job clearing up algae. It also makes the water a lot clearer, fish you normally wouldn't see become clear a good bit down in the water making it more enjoyable to view!

Blue Bayou Pond Colorant for the ideal pond color

Best Dye on market !!

7 years ago
Best dye you can buy. I use this every year. Last a LONG TIME!!! All summer for my pond, has no outlet. I put it in on real windy day so it flows out and disperses nice and fast. If not much wind I have a old boat buoy I throw in to splash it around to flow the dye. I'll be buying it this spring again. Wear rubber gloves or you become a Blue Smurf LOL...

Not sure

7 years ago
We put this is on pond but not sure if it did anything. About a week after we dropped it in, we had an algae film on our pond that stayed there until it rained. After t rained, it would return again the next day. This happened almost the entire summer. So I don’t know if I would buy it again.

NO Help

8 years ago
I purchased this product to help color a lake that was muddy. Since then I have been shutdown by the City of Smyrna for putting a foriegn substance into a lake. There is no info on the safety sheet that has convinced Smyrna GA to allow me to move forward, and the customer service people have not helped in getting any additional info that would prove that this product is safely allowed for use in a lake. I have contacted Lonza and Arch Chemical to try to get further info and have been unsuccessful.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Repeat user

I've used this in my 2 acre pond for several years works great it keeps algeas and grasses from taking over shallow areas. The reason I know this is because I skipped a year on treatment to see what would happen well the shallow ends of the pond are now covered in submerged grass and algea. I'm going now to buy some and start coloring again. Great product.

High Quality Product

Applied one (1) gallon to 3/4 acre pond in Spring 2016. One year later, the water still has an emerald green tint. Will be applying again in a few days for upcoming season. Amazed how pond maintains beautiful color despite rain and elapsed time. Have received many comments on beautiful color of pond. Use rubber gloves to apply because dye is potent.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Definitely a bargain !

10 years ago
This is my fourth type of dye used in an acre and a half pond and it is not only the longest lasting but leaves the water clear and beautiful with the emerald green color as stated by other reviewers. I have used pond logic as recommended by multiple outlets and yet none have lasted like Blue Bayou. I will buy this again within a month as I imagine that all our June rains will dilute the water extensively. So far so good though!

Yes, I recommend this product.
