<p>The one I found contains these ingredients:</p>
<p>Copper sulfate pentahydrate 1.02%, diuron 0.51% and other ingredients 98.47%. <br/><b>Storage and disposal:</b> Store in an area inaccesible to children, water supplies and feed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is not good at all and could kill your fish over a long period of time. Not only that, I would not eat those fish.</p>
<p>It stated that it is save for fish and plant and used for ornamental ponds. ( Not a food save product )</p>
<p>Copper sulfate is used as a root killer.</p>
<p>98.47 % is listed as other ingredients and this is a mystery what is in it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ohh, no.........I am glad you used the diluted form and hope you did not put more in it than it said per instructions.</p>
<p>After checking the Drain Care(R) Root Kill</p>
<p>Active ingredients:</p>
<p>Copper sulfate pentahydrate 99.00% (Cristal form)</p>
<p>Other ingredients 1.00%</p>
<p>This product is toxic to fish. Direct application of product to water may cause a significant reduction in populations of aquatic invertebrate, plants and fish ( statement on container)</p>

<p>I would use a grey spray paint primer on the sides of the tote and after it dries I would paint it white.</p>
<p>The gray would block the sunlight and the white would keep your tote cooler.</p>

I am using aquaponics to get away from all the additives that are in our food today. I think shade is a safer alternative to adding anything to prevent or slow the growth of algae. Not saying your blue block is unsafe. I have no idea what it is.

<p>They use that stuff at golf courses and the percolation ponds around here. I've caught huge bass out of those ponds so I don't think it hurts the fish. Find the MSDS sheet on it and check it out.</p>
