References:

The dose supplied by TetraPond "Flora Fin" is 5 ppm potassium
(6 ppm or 6 mg/l muriate of potash).


also found:

"Add 50 grams of muriate of potash to 500 ml of water to create a 6%

potash solution ... Recommend initially adding 165ml of this solution to
800 gallons of water at least once a week until the water clears of

algae (assuming you are adding to pond to clear up green water by enhancing
growth of other aquatic plants)."

these are not my words, but taken from:

strongly recommend you read the article before dosing with KCl solution.

hope this helps.
