Bright Blue Pond Dye

What is Bright Blue dye used for?

Bright Blue dye is used to color the water and block portions of the UV light spectrum. This can improve your pond’s appearance, keep water temperatures cooler, and help maintain your pond’s health.

What is the active ingredient?

All of Lake Restoration’s dyes are food grade dye.

How to apply pond dye?

Simply pour the dye directly into the pond in multiple places or toss the packet into the water.

Is pond shade safe for fish and wildlife?

Because our dyes are food grade, they are all safe for the fish, frogs, turtles, etc. in the pond as well as the animals that come visit.

Will pond dye kill algae?

No, dyes do not kill any algae or plants that are already present. They filter the sunlight that is necessary for photosynthesis.

When should I apply pond shade?

Add dye to your pond anytime. Re-application of pond dye (~1/4 to 1/2 of the initial dose) can be necessary 3-6 weeks later; rain, evaporation, breakdown, and other factors dilute the color of the dye.

When will I see results after applying dye?

Dye spreads throughout the entire body of water within a few hours.

Read all labels for complete instructions before applying products.
