WHAT
IS AQUASHADE? Aquashade is a blend of blue and yellow dyes specifically
designed to screen or shade portions of the sunlight spectrum (red-orange and
blue-violet) required by underwater aquatic plant and algae growth. This action
effectively inhibits photo-synthesis in young, bottom growth and may prevent
development altogether if applied early enough in the season.
AQUASHADE
is primarily effective at depths of two feet or greater. Inhibition of Planktonic
(suspended) algae blooms has also been proven. Desirable, floating leaved plants
such as lilies are unaffected if they have already surfaced and concentrated
product does not contact leaves directly. No restrictions on swimming, fishing,
irrigation or stock watering. Leaves water a pleasing blue color. |

floating and submerged aquatic plants. Vegetation controlled includes: Cladophora,
Pithophora, Lyngbya, Microcystis, Hydrilla, pondweeds, watermilfoil, naiad and
other species having a sensitivity to copper absorption in conjunction with
a penetrant. No water use restrictions during or following treatment.

industrial and swimming ponds.
b. CLEARIGATE
has no water use restrictions during or following application.
c. CLEARIGATE
is NOT a Federally "RESTRICTED USE" pesticide.
d. CLEARIGATE
mixes readily in the water for top-to bottom, side-to-side and downstream control.

the noxious submersed weed, Hydrilla verticillata, without requiring
post-treatment water use restrictions associated with other herbicides.
j. CUTRINE-PLUS is compatible in
tank mixes with the aquatic herbicides Weedtrine-D, Reward and Aquathol K.
k. CUTRINE-PLUS can be applied
to flowing water using a continuous delivery drip system. It has been used
effectively in trout raceways and irrigation canals

WHAT IS AQUATRINE? Aquatrine
algaecide controls problem-producing algae and inhibits rapid reinfestation
within fish and shrimp aquaculture systems. Benefits of algae control in aquaculture
systems included reduced mortality, increased productivity and improved harvest
conditions.
The exact
formulation of Cutrine-Plus Liquid, but labeled specifically for use in fish
and shrimp aquaculture facilities. Provides use instructions for ponds, tanks
and raceway systems.
ADVANTAGES
a. AQUATRINE is E.P.A. registered
for use in ponds, tanks and raceways used for the culturing of fish and
shrimp.
b. AQUATRINE is equally effective
in fresh water, saltwater and brackish water since the mixed ethanolamine
complexes prevent the reaction of copper with other chemical components in
the water.
c. Fish and shrimp may be harvested
and/or consumed immediately after treatment.
d. There are no restrictions placed
upon water uses following chemical application. Water may be used immediately
for swimming, fishing, irrigating and drinking.
e. Unlike many chemicals, Aquatrine
in non-corrosive to applicating equipment and other metal surfaces.
f. AQUATRINE is stable under normal
storage conditions.
g. AQUATRINE is a broad-range algaecide.
It controls both suspended and attached algae found within a variety
of aquaculture systems.
h. AQUATRINE will not cloud the
water when applied.
i. To increase herbicide effectiveness
and reduce cost, Aquatrine can be compatibly tank-mixed with the aquatic
herbicides Reward, Weedtrine-D, Aquathol K and Hydrothol 191.
j. AQUATRINE is completely water
soluble and stable when diluted with water. This allows for the preparation
of stock solutions to be used in small volume applications or drip systems.
k. Copper, the algaecidal ingredient
in Aquatrine, is taken up rapidly by the algae.
l. AQUATRINE may be applied to
either flow-through or static systems.
IMPORTANT
CONSIDERATIONS
a. AQUATRINE needs natural light
to be effective.
b. AQUATRINE is not completely
effective against Pithophoras spp., Lyngbya spp. and some diatoms.
c. AQUATRINE can be toxic to trout
and other aquatic organisms in soft water. Do not use in waters containing
trout if carbonate hardness is below 50 ppm.
d. AQUATRINE should not be used
in systems where bio-filters are utilized for water purification as microbial
activity may be inhibited.

WHAT IS WEEDTRINE®-D?
Weedtrine-D is a broad spectrum liquid
aquatic herbicide for use in and around still lakes, ponds, ditches, non-crop
or non-planted areas. It contains 8.53% active diquat dibromide (6,7 dihydrodipyrido
[1,2-a: 27, 17-c} pyrazinediium dibromide).
HOW DOES WEEDTRINE-D WORK?
Weedtrine-D acts as a contact killer in
plants by disrupting cellular membranes. Loss of these membranes allows the
active ingredient to move into the plant and "short circuit" photosynthesis.
ADVANTAGES
OF WEEDTRINE-D:
- controls a broad range of aquatic
plants including submerges, floating and emergent weeds and certain filamentous
algae.
- is specifically formulated for
homeowner use for spot treatment of small weed patches or back yard ponds.
- kills plants quickly through rapid
absorption.
- is easy to apply.
- has a low toxicity to fish and
other aquatic organisms.
- is compatible in tank mixes with
Cutrine-Plus algicide to increase effectiveness.
- can be used in non-crop or non-planted
areas such as around buildings, fence lines, driveways, patios, etc.
SPECIAL NOTE:
Waters treated with Weedtrine-D should
not be used for irrigation, animal consumption or domestic purposes for 5 days
after treatment.
Do not use Weedtrine-D in muddy waters
as deactivation of active ingredient will occur.
See label for use site restrictions, specific
use directions and additional precautions before using Weedtrine-D. |
