Pond Dye Limits Sun ExposureWhile dye is great for aesthetics, pond dye also limits sun exposure, protects fish, and promotes a balanced ecosystem in your pond or lake. Excessive sunlight promotes overgrowth of submerged aquatic plants and algae. Pond dye actively blocks specific portions of the sunlight spectrum, slowing weed growth. |
Pond Dye Protects FishPredators that fly above or lurk alongside the pond will not be able to see fish as easily, giving the fish time to flee to safety. In addition, as temperatures rise, dissolved oxygen levels in the pond are reduced. Using pond dye will keep the water cooler and allow fish to breathe easier during the summer. |
Available in Two ColorsNatures Blue is the ideal blue pond dye for decorative ponds as it contrasts perfectly with lush green landscaping. Natures Blue is our customers favorite blue pond dye. Black DyeMond creates a surface that beautifully reflects surrounding trees and natural rocky landscapes, making it perfect for natural ponds in wooded areas. |
