The chemical didn’t kill the fish, it just worked to good, the dying algae raised the CO2 and dropped the oxygen to lethal levels to the fish. My understanding was this was a private company demonstrating their services to the state hoping to sell them on using it in more lakes that have issues with algae blooms.
