    Liquid—Liquid is a good choice for larger volumes of water, such as sewers. It disperses faster than tablets and powder.
    Powder—Powder is the best choice for the largest volumes of water, such as ponds, piping systems in power plants, and cooling towers.
    Fluorescent Orange, Fluorescent Red, and Fluorescent Yellow/Green—Fluorescent dye can be enhanced with a UV flashlight.
