Iongen System: String Algae Control

Say goodbye to string algae with the Aquascape IonGen™ System G2!  Ideal for use in Ponds, Pondless® Waterfalls, and other decorative water features, the IonGen effectively kills algae without the use of traditional liquid chemicals.

The system helps to control algae growth throughout the entire system (up to 25,000 gallons) by using a microprocessor that sends a signal to its ionproducing probe.  The Aquascape IonGen System G2 is compatible with water containing fish and plants and typically costs less than $1 per month in electric costs. It’s simple to install, energy efficient design makes the Iongen a perfect choice for the discriminating pond owner or professional.

​
  • Controls unsightly algae without chemicals
  • Simple, tool-free installation
  • Energy efficient (less than $1 a month in electricity cost)
  • Includes electronic control panel, transformer, flow chamber, probe, and multiple fittings
  • 3-Year Limited Warranty

When To Use:

While there are many different types of algae, string algae tends to be biggest pain as it can become quite large and requires manual removal if left to become out of control. Thus, the iongen system is designed to eliminate string algae growth and ONLY string algae growth.

Though not confirmed, we have found that it may be unsafe for fish to operate at high levels when algae is not present in the pond. Because of which, we recommend only plugging it in when string algae is present in the pond and then reducing the strength level when the issue is rectified. It also saves on the probe usage.

Did you know that an important factor in aquaculture / water health is maintaining a consistent diatom bloom? Managing ammonia and nitrate concentrations in finfish, shrimp and prawn farms can be a major headache.

Rather than trying to build your garden and pond on your own, I propose hiring pros. The company I worked with, https://purelyponds.com/pond-contractor-near-me/, did a fantastic job maintaining my backyard pond and garden. The degree of craftsmanship and attention to detail was impressive.
