Swimming pool Algaecide is used to prevent algae growth, rather than as a  treatment for killing algae.

If Algae is already present in pool water it must be cleared using a shock chlorine. 

A liquid Pool Clarifier is used as part of the treatment for clearing a cloudy pool, whilst gels or tablets are used as part of regular on going pool maintenance.

Swimming Pool Algicide

Swimming pool Algaecide helps prevent algae growth, they are not, as is often assumed, a treatment for killing algae.
If Algae is already present in the pool water it needs to be cleared using a shock chlorine. Once cleared an algicide should then be added to inhibit its return. Either a long life (6 month) algicide or a weekly dosing algicide are available.

A Clarifier is used as part of the treatment for clearing a cloudy pool. Once the correct water balance has been achieved a clarifier (flocculant) is added to clear the pool.

As an ongoing treatment small flocculant tablets or a gel can be used in the pump basket or skimmer basket to help keep the pool water sparkling on an ongoing basis.
