Any one know what they use?
it says, right in the picture, Aqua-Pro

http://www.sepro.com/documents/AquaPro_Label.pdf

active ingredient is the same as roundup (glyphosate). the manufacturer lists Aqua-Pro as safe for use to clear land before planting food plots for wildlife, and roundup is used by most commercial farms to help make the food you eat. i wouldn't worry about the fish.
