REGEN-Alguard

REGEN-Alguard

REGEN-Alguard® is a commercial-grade liquid chelated copper-based algaecide, used for the safe, rapid and effective control of a broad spectrum of filamentous and planktonic algae.  REGEN-Alguard® is up to 80% less copper than current (copper-based) algaecides and is widely used to control algae in lakes, irrigation dams, decorative ponds and more.  REGEN-Alguard® will not harm fish, livestock, plants, pastures or turf (when used in accordance with label instructions).

REGEN-Alguard® works by weakening cyanobacteria and algae cells. Copper ions stop photosynthesis causing the cells to die and dissolve into the water.  There is minimal harm to organisms in the water.  Residual toxins are rapidly biodegraded.  REGEN-Alguard® rapidly disperses throughout the water body without settling to the bottom or floating on top like other copper-based algaecides.

How to Use

Apply in a manner that will ensure even product distribution within the treatment area. Retreat areas if regrowth begins to appear or if seasonal control is desired. Repeating application of this product too soon after initial application may have no effect. Treatment of aquatic weeds and algae can result in oxygen loss from the decomposition of dead biomass. This oxygen loss can cause fish and invertebrate suffocation. To minimize this hazard, do not treat more than ½ of the water body and wait at least 14 days between treatments to avoid depletion of oxygen.  Begin treatment along the shore and proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move into untreated areas. Application of algaecides to high-density blooms of cyanobacteria can result in the release of intracellular contents into the water. Some of these intracellular compounds are known mammalian hepato- and nervous system toxins. Therefore, to minimize the risk of toxin leakage, manage cyanobacteria effectively in order to avoid applying this product when blooms of toxin-producing cyanobacteria are present at high density. Certain water conditions including low pH (≤6.5), low dissolved organic carbon (DOC) levels (3.0 mg/L or lower) and “soft” waters (i.e. alkalinity less than 50 mg/L) increases the potential acute toxicity to non-target aquatic organisms. The application rates on the label are appropriate for water with pH values > 6.5, DOC levels >3.0 mg/L, and alkalinity greater than 50 mg/L. Avoid treating waters with pH values <6.5, DOC levels <3.0 and alkalinity less than 50ppm (e.g., soft or acid water), as koi, trout and other sensitive species of fish may be killed under such conditions.

REGEN-Clarify®

REGEN-Clarify®

The perfect solution clarifying your water

REGEN-Clarify® is a high-performance liquid probiotic that clarifies water through enhanced biological flocculation. This formulation removes nitrogen and temporarily binds phosphorus in the water column. Designed for aquatic professionals, it quickly restores balance and improves clarity in lakes and ponds.

REGEN-Clarify® excels when used alone or after algaecide treatments to flocculate and precipitate dead algal cells. For an extra boost, REGEN-Clarify® can also be used in combination with REGEN-Enhancer®.

The Science Behind It

A weak microbial community can be a contributing factor leading to poor water quality and poor clarity. Chemical treatments, washouts, and runoff are all common events that can negatively impact the abundance or activity of microbes in an aquatic environment. Ailing microbes and poor floc-formation can limit the community’s natural capabilities and lead to increased turbidity and nutrient overloading.

REGEN-Clarify® proprietary formula uses select bacteria cultures and bio-stimulants to enhance biological flocculation. This process creates a microfloc which further removes turbidity from the water column. REGEN-Clarify® provides a natural way to improve water clarity and quality.

REGEN-Enhancer®

REGEN-Enhancer®

Improve the effectiveness of algaecides and herbicides

REGEN-Enhancer® is a natural catalyst that accelerates chemical treatments by improving penetration.  When mixed with an algaecide or herbicide it speeds the breakdown of dead algae and aquatic plants while stimulating naturally occurring bacteria to fixate nutrients liberated during this process. This complex blend of enzymes, cultures, fungi, and stimulants dissolves the dead algae and aquatic plants on a cellular level, reducing their contribution of nutrients.

By accelerating chemical reactions, REGEN-Enhancer® improves copper algaecide performance. This is especially critical in hard water applications when copper solubility and performance is reduced.

REGEN-Enhancer® alone does not kill anything.

The science behind it

The cells of algae and aquatic plants can be thought of as a series of well-engineered structures. These structures are made of complex proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and minerals. Chlorophyll is stored within the chloroplasts in the cell, and chlorophyll is how a plant gets it energy to grow from sunlight. This intricate framework allows algae and aquatic plants to grow and thrive while aiding in resistance to chemical treatments.

Improving the performance of contact algaecides and aquatic herbicides

Contact algaecides (copper products, peroxides, and herbicides) must contact the cell wall and enter the cell to be effective.  The lack of penetration and intercellular movement of these chemistries reduces their effectiveness.  REGEN-Enhancer® degrades dead plant cell walls and weakens cellular integrity when used with an algaecide formulation.  Killing all susceptible cells reduces the risk of algae developing any resistance to chemical treatments.

Improving the performance of systemic herbicides

Systemic herbicides (i.e. glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr) travel through the cell disrupting processes such as amino acid synthesis, cell division, and photosynthesis. Systemic herbicides tend to work slower, but they do translocate into multiple parts of the plant. However, herbicide resistance has been studied in detail and can reduce overall treatment performance and consistency.  For this reason, we focus on a complete degradation of the dead plant structure and aquatic herbicide dispersion to all susceptible cells.

When combined with systemic herbicides, REGEN-Enhancer® speeds movement into the cells by breaking down the cellular framework of dead cells, promoting rapid nutrient recovery, and decomposing dead plant material from the inside out. REGEN-Enhancer® works synergistically with systemic herbicides and ensures thorough and complete degradation of dead aquatic plants.

NOTE: REGEN-Enhancer® DOES NOT kill aquatic plants or algae.

REGEN-Balance®

REGEN-Balance®

Promotes balanced ecosystem after chemical treatment

REGEN-Balance® is a Temperature Driven Solution that excels between 14°C-26°C. This dry probiotic formula is enhanced with psychrophilic, neutrophilic, and mesophilic microorganisms and select stimulants to ensure optimal performance. REGEN-Balance® will quickly cycle out excess nitrogen and phosphorus compounds in aquatic environments. Made for aquatic professionals, it promotes a balanced aquatic ecosystem and rapid recovery from both adverse environmental impacts and chemical treatments.

REGEN-Balance® excels when used alone and can be applied as a dry powder or dissolved and sprayed over the surface of the water. For an extra boost, use REGEN-Balance® in combination with REGEN-Enhancer®

The Science Behind It

Water bodies have stress from both external and internal sources. Excessive rains or draught combined with the ongoing use of algaecides and herbicides deplete the microbial communities that are fundamental to nutrient removal in water bodies. This imbalance in the ecosystem leads to elevated nutrient issues and can result in excessive aquatic plant growth, continuing algal blooms, and HAB’s (Harmful Algal Blooms).

REGEN-Balance® was formulated through years of research by obtaining samples from lakes and ponds across the Globe when water temperatures were mild. The natural microbial communities in the samples were analyzed to understand population densities and the specific organisms that are depleted by stresses. This research is how Parklink was able to create a probiotic that supplements natural populations and supports indigenous organisms that are functional and native to that geography. REGEN-Balance® is more than simple additions of beneficial bacteria. It is a scientifically formulated probiotic that works in harmony with the microbial communities that play key roles in nitrogen and phosphorus uptake. Real science. Real Results.
