SeClear is described as a copper sulfate algicide with what additional benefit?

• A. Increases pH.
• B. Reduces phosphorus to improve water quality.
• C. Increases calcium hardness.
• D. Is slower acting.

Answer: (B)

SeClear combines copper sulfate’s rapid algicidal action with an added phosphorus-reducing effect. Copper ions kill algae by disrupting cellular processes, giving quick control of existing blooms. Reducing phosphorus lowers a key nutrient that fuels algal growth, helping prevent new blooms and improving overall water quality. The other potential benefits listed don’t reflect this nutrient-reduction advantage, and they don’t explain why SeClear would provide better water quality than a copper-algicide alone.
