Argos Liquid Copper Algaecide & Aquatic Weed Control
Advanced Copper-Based Control for Algae and Hydrilla Management
Alliage Argos is a highly effective liquid copper algaecide formulated to control a broad spectrum of nuisance algae and certain invasive aquatic weeds in ponds, lakes, reservoirs, irrigation canals, and other managed water bodies. Its unique ethanolamine-chelated copper technology helps keep copper in solution by reducing interactions with carbonates and bicarbonates commonly found in water, improving product stability and performance.
Designed for professional aquatic management programs, Argos delivers reliable control of many common algae species while also providing proven suppression of the invasive submerged aquatic plant Hydrilla verticillata. The liquid formulation disperses easily throughout the treatment area, allowing for efficient application and consistent results.
