@scotchipman I don’t have hard data and think both are great products. It seemed the Key Colour product lasted longer In our lake for the same amount of dye. I thought the cost was similar or slightly cheaper for Key Colour. We do a bulk order with several other lakes and get bulk pricing on delivery.

 

I would suggest everyone try both and go with what works for you.

@bishop8950 What color(s) of the Key Colour are you using?

 

Edit: I see they also sell the Lake fx dye. Any idea what the differences are?

@igkya one color we use is called “Shortline Blue” and the other I believe is called Midnight. Both look great and midnight is a little darker. I dont know what the Fox products are.

Curious if anyone is using gypsum in their lakes instead of the forementioned lake dyes? We are using gypsum delivered by the dump truck load. Doesnt create the blue color but seems to stop plant growth.

One use for gypsum is to increase percolation in cropland. Be careful using gypsum in your lake if you are water limited.

@whitecaps gypsum would make my clay lined lake that is mostly above grade leak more.

 

Lakes below the water table or with lots of flow through won't be hurt at all.

 

Gypsum increases crop yield so I'm a bit puzzled as to how it works to keep growth down. But every lake is unique so whatever works.
