Black Pack Plus | Pond Algae & Water Treatment Kit
Description
Algae & Muck Control Water Clarifier Lake & Pond Care Package
The BLACK PACK PLUS Package is designed to target small to large scale algae problems, clearing up the entire water column and removing the nuisance by speeding up the breakdown of algae and other dead floating aquatic vegetation. This aids in cleaning out sludge, muck, nitrogen & phosphates in the water column and bottom, in addition to dramatically improving your pond or lake front aesthetic, smell, and ecosystem.
DESIGNED TO: Target & Kill Living Algae | Speed Up Decomposition of Dead Algae | Clarify Murky Water in Column & Surface
(if you want to reduce bottom sediment we suggest you check out our Black Pack MAX package which includes all of these items as well as Muck Tablets)

OVERVIEW OF HOW THESE PRODUCTS WORK AND COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER
CUTRINE PLUS LIQUID ALGAECIDE:
Cutrine Plus Liquid Algaecide targets algae mats or clumps, killing living algae with relative ease to be subsequently broken down with Bio-Chemical Catalyst.
TURBULENCE:
Turbulence Surfactant Blend plays an important role in helping Cutrine Plus Liquid Algaecide stay on the surface of matted and clumped algae to increase the algaecides potency.
BIO-CHEMICAL CATALYST:
Bio-Chemical Catalyst does an excellent job of enhancing the efficiency of algaecides / herbicides / liquid bacteria. The catalyst is vital to breaking down dead and decomposing algae, greatly improving the performance of subsequent Liquid Bacteria and Tablet application.
Formulated and designed to accelerate the breakdown of dead weeds, algae and other dead floating aquatic vegetation in lakes and ponds Bio-Chemical Catalyst will in turn enhance the speed at which Algaecides & Liquid Beneficial Bacteria can digest and remove the broken down flora and excess nutrients in the water column much quicker.
LIQUID BACTERIA:
Liquid Bacteria is key in the further decomposition of the existing dying organic matter and residue left by the previously treated/currently dead algae. By re-establishing bacterial colonies, the product accelerates the process of rebuilding a healthy pond ecosystem. Shore Tech Industries Black Label Liquid Bacteria works quickly and efficiently to consume & remove any broken down vegetation, sludge, muck, and nitrogen/phosphate residue in the water column & at the surface left behind by Bio-Catalyst.

APPLICATION STEPS:
- Mix Cutrine Plus, Bio-Catalyst, Turbulence Surfactant, and Water. Apply to the target area with sprayer)The Cutrine will kill the vegetation and the Catalyst will immediately begin to break up the dying algae mats, so when Liquid Bacteria is applied it will be able to digest decomposed organic matter more efficiently.
- Apply Liquid Bacteria to the target area surface and/or on top of existing algae mats
( This can be applied 12-24 hours after completion of step 1)(if you want to reduce bottom sediment we suggest you check out our Black Pack MAX package which includes all of these items as well as Muck Tablets)

FAQs
FAQs
Yes, you can apply Black Pack Plus while your fountain or aeration system is running. In fact, aeration can help circulate the treatment and improve bacterial breakdown of dead algae.
Yes, Black Pack Plus specifically targets filamentous algae, floating algae mats, and surface scum. The Cutrine Plus component combined with the bio-catalyst is highly effective are killing and breaking down algae mats when when applied directly to them. The liquid bacteria is effective at digesting the algae once it has been broken down and decays as well as clarifying pond water overall.
When used as directed and properly diluted, Black Pack Plus generally will not stain hard surfaces. However, direct, undiluted contact of Cutrine Plus Algaecide with porous materials can sometimes leave minor discoloration.
Store all components in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures. Make sure caps are tightly sealed to maintain product effectiveness for the next treatment cycle.
Yes, by breaking down dead algae and reducing organic waste, Black Pack Plus helps eliminate the musty, swampy odors commonly associated with algae die-off and decaying pond material.
You can apply Black Pack Plus from shore using a sprayer with a sufficient reach for small ponds. For larger ponds or to cover floating mats away from the shoreline, application from a boat is recommended for even coverage.
Generally, there are no swimming or fishing restrictions after using Black Pack Plus as long as label instructions are followed. Always double-check local guidelines and the Cutrine Plus product label to confirm.
Black Pack Plus is a liquid-based system that works faster on surface algae, whereas granular algaecides may take longer to penetrate and are often used for spot treatments of bottom-growing algae.
