Is the copper sulfate applicable even the pond has a stock spicifically a shrimp which is 20 days of culture? Pls answer me becaused i am currently experiencing filamentous algae problem in my pond having already stock(shrimp)

[@sancoindustries]

We would not recommend using copper sulfate based products with shrimp. Shrimp, along with crustaceans, snails, etc., are sensitive to copper sulfate. I would look into finding an algaecide that is copper sulfate-free to be safe.

How many hours/days before you can apply without rain washing it away?

[@katkatmi]

it takes at least a week if no rain happens.

[@sancoindustries]

Assuming this is about Cattplex. You will want at least a 24 hour window without any rain to ensure that the plant absorbs the product.

Don’t You Need To Have A Permit License In order To Treat Algae In Some States? Because I Think Some Places For Aquaculture Laws Require You To Take An Approved Safety Course For Pond Spraying Company’s.

If its your property most states dont require permits.
