【How-to】How to get rid of brown algae

For pond algae or lake algae control, we recommend the copper based algaecide Mizzen® to help control nearly all types of Planktonic Algae, Filamentus Algae, and Chara. Mizzen® is an EPA approved algaecide that is safe for most fish, however, it is not recommended for use where there are Koi, Trout or Channel Catfish.
