Description

Aquipond KH+ is a blend of mineral salts and trace elements that raises the carbonate hardness (KH) of pond water. A well-adjusted KH stabilises the pH and the whole ecosystem, and improves water quality.

Why monitor KH?

Carbonate hardness acts as a buffer: it limits sudden pH swings. The optimal KH is between 6 and 12°. A value that is too low is harmful to the growth of plants and fish. Rainwater lowers KH: after heavy rain or during dry spells, a check is essential.

Benefits for your pond

  • Higher carbonate hardness: a more stable pH and a better-balanced ecosystem.
  • Stronger biological filtration: KH+ supports the action of bacteria.
  • Clearer water: it causes phosphates to precipitate.
  • Better-mineralised sludge: it helps sludge mineralise and break down.
  • A safer environment: it prevents deficiencies and reduces the harmful effect of many dissolved toxins (heavy metals, treatment residues…).

How to use

Measure KH before adding anything, then dose according to pond volume. Check KH regularly, especially after heavy rain and during dry spells.

How much for my pond?

Dosage: 1 measuring scoop per m³ of water raises KH by 1 to 2°.

Pond volumeScoops per doseExpected KH increase
5 m³5+1 to 2°
10 m³10+1 to 2°
20 m³20+1 to 2°
50 m³50+1 to 2°

This size: 5 kg. The number of doses depends on your pond volume and its starting KH: allow 1 measuring scoop per m³ per dose.

Good to know

  • Aim for a KH between 6 and 12°.
  • Rainwater lowers KH: check it after every period of heavy rain.
  • To raise total hardness (GH), use Aquipond GH+.
