    Found it.

    It's made by AllChem, and sold under a bunch of labels. HomeDepot has an MSDS available for it, here, under the HTH brand.
    The Doheny's "Lo Chlor" label is here.
    (both archived locally)

    It's just a copper algaecide:
    "Ingredients Found:

    11.83% of COPPER SULFATE (PENTAHYDRATE) (161)
    88.17% of INERT INGREDIENTS (0)"

    And, no, it will not keep your pool algae free for 90 days, unless you also chlorinate, filter, and otherwise do everything necessary.

    Oops. Anna, I still had this open from last night, and didn't check to see if someone else had posted. My bad.
