I'm so sorry this happened, I can understand why you're upset. Are you able to remove the remaining fish and put them in a container ( decholorinating the water ) and run an air stone?

I would suggest you keep doing water changes.

Can you add carbon to your filter? It is used to help remove medication from aquarium water. It may or may not help remove the algaecide. But it certainly won't hurt.

And that was going to be my next suggestion

Even bags or panty hose sacks (or any fine mesh)with activated carbon placed directly into the water.
With water changes.

What is the name of the algaecide and what is the size of your pond?

What is the name of the algaecide and what is the size of your pond?

Yes. And is there any first aid info. on the bottle?
Like what to do if ingested.
There could be ingredients listed there.

Right, and better yet, we can look up the msds information.

Hi. I'm sorry about your fish. I would recommend to take them out until you can get the pond water back to normal.
