SCI-62 is a very unique Algaecide/Bactericide. SCI-62 is  formulated with a very unique non-chelated carrier. What makes this carrier so unique is its ability to hold the copper in suspension until there is a need for the copper ion. SCI-62 is used in a variety of applications from fresh water lakes, retention and decorative ponds to water treatment facilities.

SCI-62® self-disperses both horizontally and vertically throughout the water column.  Copper concentrations are easy to measure, providing the correct treatment rates for targeted species of algae and bacteria.

Pre-treatment is now possible because SCI-62® can be applied before algae can start to bloom.  Long term control is now possible without constant application, thus relieving concerns of the contamination of sediments due to the extended use of copper.

No mixing or spraying required.

SCI-62® is registered as an algicide/bactericide with the U.S. EPA, and certified to ANSI-NSF Standard 60 as a drinking water additive.

While SCI-62 works to reduce and eliminate harmful bacterial populations SCI-62 will not affect beneficial bacteria when dosage rates of 1 gallon to 60,000 gallons or water are not exceeded. (1ppm of SCI-62 or less).

SCI-62® is an environmentally responsible water treatment that is non-toxic to humans and fish when used as directed.

Begin application in spring as water temperature warms to 60º F and above. Early treatment when growth first appears or before it begins will reduce the amount of SCI-62® you will need. Early treatment will also reduce the amount of dead growth..

Apply SCI-62 to fish bearing ponds  at a rate of (1) gallon of SCI-62 per 1,000,000 gallons of water. May be applied at ice out for early season prevention. Contact with algae will be improved by breaking apart heavy surface mats before application. Add Bio Boost Enzyme to the Tank Mix to increase the effectivness of the algae treatment. Treat heavy infestations in sections to avoid oxygen depletion.

*Consult Label for Exact Doses & Important Application Directions.
