Key Fit and Function

  • Fast-Acting Corrective Algaecide – Quickly kills and controls green, yellow, and black algae to restore clear water

  • Designed for Active Algae Problems – Used when algae is present, not for routine weekly prevention

  • Non-Foaming Formula – Safe for pools with water features, spas, and high circulation systems

  • Works Alongside Chlorine – Supports existing sanitation without replacing proper chlorine levels

  • Safe for All Pool Surfaces – Compatible with plaster, pebble, fiberglass, and vinyl pools when used as directed

  • Helps Restore Water Clarity – Eliminates algae that causes cloudiness, discoloration, and slippery surfaces

  • Professional-Grade Treatment – Trusted solution for fast algae knockdown during corrective maintenance

When algae appears, it rarely waits. Green water can develop quickly, yellow algae can cling stubbornly to surfaces, and black algae can take hold deep within porous finishes. Applied Biochemists Algaetrine is a fast-acting pool algaecide designed to kill existing algae quickly and control future growth without staining surfaces or creating foam.

This professional-grade algaecide is commonly used by pool service technicians when immediate algae control is required. Algaetrine works efficiently across multiple algae types, making it a dependable solution for corrective treatments as well as short-term algae management during high-risk conditions.


Why Fast Algae Control Matters

Once algae establishes itself, it consumes sanitizer, clouds water, and places extra strain on filtration systems. Delayed treatment often leads to higher chemical demand and longer recovery times.

Fast algae control matters because it helps:

  • Stop algae growth before it spreads

  • Restore water clarity more quickly

  • Reduce chlorine loss caused by active algae

  • Prevent algae from embedding into pool surfaces

Applied Biochemists Algaetrine is designed for situations where speed and effectiveness matter most.


How Applied Biochemists Algaetrine Works

Algaetrine uses a powerful algaecide formulation that attacks algae cells directly, disrupting their structure and preventing reproduction. This fast-acting chemistry allows visible algae to be controlled quickly when paired with proper brushing and filtration.

Because the formula is non-staining and non-foaming, it can be used confidently in pools with water features, spas, and high circulation without leaving residue or discoloration behind.


When to Use Applied Biochemists Algaetrine

Algaetrine is best used in corrective or rapid-response scenarios, including:

  • Active green, yellow, or black algae outbreaks

  • Cloudy or green water conditions

  • After heavy rain, extreme heat, or neglect

  • Pools with sudden sanitizer loss

  • Spot treatment alongside brushing and shock

While highly effective for fast control, Algaetrine is often paired with a preventative algaecide program for long-term algae resistance.


Compatibility with Pool Systems & Surfaces

Applied Biochemists Algaetrine is safe for use in most standard pool environments. It is compatible with chlorine pools and professionally managed systems.

It can be used on plaster, pebble, fiberglass, and vinyl-lined pools and works with cartridge, sand, and DE filters. When used according to label directions, it will not foam, stain, or interfere with normal pool operation.


Professional-Grade Corrective Treatment

Algaetrine is formulated for technicians who need rapid algae knockdown, not slow preventative control. Its strength makes it ideal for pools that need to recover quickly from visible algae problems.

Because it acts fast, proper brushing, circulation, and filtration should always accompany treatment to fully remove dead algae and restore clarity.


Application & Treatment Best Practices

For best results, visible algae should be brushed prior to application to expose growth to treatment. Algaetrine should be added to circulating water and allowed to distribute evenly throughout the pool.

Filtration should run continuously during treatment, and dead algae should be removed through vacuuming or backwashing as needed. Maintaining proper sanitizer levels after treatment helps prevent recurrence.

Always follow manufacturer label instructions for dosing and safety.

Short-lived but much enjoyed as a chew toy
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
I bought two of these for my "granddogs" in the size for Large dogs. The German Shepherd-mix stole the one intended for the border collie-mix and had both toys halfway destroyed within a day--I'm pretty sure they didn't survive much longer after that. Much enjoyed! Maybe I should've bought the Extra Large size, because the Large barely fit in her mouth and she wanted to play tug-of-war, so there wasn't much for me to grab onto. Then the border collie wanted in on the action (she's older, so she needed help tugging!) but there wasn't enough material for her to grab onto without accidentally sinking her teeth into me instead.

Love all the Barkbox toys
Color: Christmas Consuela, Size: Large Dog
This is our third "Consuela"! Our dogs LOVE these toys, and they are the most durable we can find for our heavy chewers. They really like the ball inside as well. Highly, highly recommend these toys. I won't be buying other toys anymore, just barkbox.

My dog is a toy destroyer
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog, Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
I’ve had a hard time trying to find toys that my dog, Zara loves because she’s actually very picky. Ive gotten plenty of Kong toys that are well known to be indestructible but she wants nothing to do with them. Then I got her ropes and that seemed to be good for a while until she was getting sick in the middle of the night from eating all of the string. Stuffed toys aren’t good because she’ll rip them within seconds and eat all of the stuffing. I felt like I’ll never score the perfect toy for her. I found the three layered cactus toy and decided to give it a go. It’s clearly designed to be ripped and destroyed to get the ball in the middle which is actually really cute and fun to see all of the layers. The cactus arms have stuffing and of course that’s the first thing she went for and ate. I had to watch her and make sure I took the stuffing away before she ate it. And before I knew it, she ate half of the first layer fabric lol once she got through the first layer, all she’s been doing is walking around the house with the toy in her mouth. But now she’s tired and passed out on the couch from all of the fun. This toy won’t last long with a toy destroyer but it sure does give them something to do and it’s a cute toy. I do recommend!!

Last a while. Will be buying more toys soon.
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
Best dog toy I have ever bought. I have three dogs, two at the time I bought this toy. It took them over a year to break through the first layer. The flower comes off first so be careful your dog doesn't swallow it. It still has the second layer so it still looks like a cactus. No stuffing to clean up when they tear into it, which makes it far less messy than other toys. One of my dogs is obsessed with fetch so I use it like a ball inside. The oval shape makes it hard to ensure when it bounces that it will bounce straight. It's bounced into walls and other stuff that I wasn't intending it to hit. Not much of a squeak so I can let them play with it for hours and I don't get annoyed with the noise. Great toy that lasts a while.
