Barley Straw Bales

Barley Straw has been used in England for many years. Many pond owners have had success with barley straw in the treatment of string and filamentous algae. Barley Straw gives good results in most ponds, but does not work in all ponds.

  • 2 bales per pack (each treats 1000 gallons).
  • Each bale measures approximately 3-1/2" in diameter and 8-1/2" long.
  • Bales should be replaced every 6 months.
  • Cork float included.
  • Allow 1 month for results.
  • Treats up to 2,000 gallons.

Instructions for use:

  • Calculate approximate water content of pond. Need help? Try Our Online Calculators

  • Determine how many mini bale(s) are required to treat pond.
  • Place mini bale on the surface of the pond, preferably near waterfall or filter outlet.
  • Allow one month for the mini bale to become effective.
  • Replace each mini bale after six months of use. After five months, place new bale next to the old one and then remove the oldest one at six months.
  • For best results keep the barley straw mini bale floating in the pond year round.

I've used this product for: over 3 years

Comments: This is an excellent product. It has worked great for us. In my opinion this is the best solution for keeping algae at bay and the healthiest for the fish

I've used this product for: less than 1 year

Comments: Not only has this done nothing to help my string algea problem, which is the worst it's ever been, the bale itself is covered in algea!
