Barley Ball
Keep Your Pond Clear Of Algae with Natural Barley
Keep ponds fresh all summer long with a blend of barley straw and naturally-occurring micro-organisms. Our specially treated barley encourages clearer ponds, and it's safe for fish, pets and flowering plants.
Barley products are non-toxic for fish and plants when used appropriately, but since the process uses oxygen, it is critical to use the correct amount for your pond and to avoid using it in low-oxygen situations. Low-oxygen conditions can be caused by any or all of the following; hot weather, overstocking of fish, other decaying plant matter, and severe algae blooms. The use of barley in conjunction with these other variables can de-oxygenate the water to the point of causing fish kills. We do not recommend using barley if there has been no problem with algae in your pond.
Please note: Pond Pad Floatation Frames are recommended to keep Barley Pond Pads suspended near the surface of the water to maximize performance.
