Is this shrimp safe?
Do I need to remove the koi when using these products
- No, just follow instructions.

Is this safe for red eared sliders?
- Should be fine. It’s basically barley powder and dissolves pretty fast. It is safe for koi and goldfish so can’t see why it wouldn’t.

Will this safe for cherry shrimps, fancy guppies, snails? Is this all natural bacteria? Can I use in 300 gallon aquariums?
- I don't know. We have a koi pond, about 4000 gallons and also mosquito fish which I think are like guppies and seem to be ok when not eaten by Koi. Does help clean up pond.

- ChgoMan, Thank you for your question. You can use any of the API products in conjunction with each other as long as you are dosing the products accordingly to the label. You do not need to wait a specific amount of time before adding the Pond Zyme to your pond after adding the Algae Fix.

how long will it take to clear up my 16 x 8 pond?
- Thank you for your question. This product will begin to work immediately but the source of your algae growth will also need to be addressed as well.

Is this product good to use in a natural pond? I have a 30' x 120' x 6' deep pond and need something to help with the sludge from fish and leaves. .

Can this be used in a pond that does not have fish or a pump to make the water clear & also remove sludge & algae?
- Thank you for your question. The PondCare Pond-Zyme with Barley is made to break down debris and sludge that clogs up pumps and filters, however it should still work without having a pump.
