Description
Aquipond Liquid Bacteria are designed for ponds loaded with sludge and nutrients. They contain photosynthetic bacteria that have a beneficial effect on water turbidity by flocculating and precipitating organic and mineral dirt particles, while helping to remove organic sludge.
How do these bacteria work?
In a heavily loaded pond, suspended particles cloud the water and organic sludge builds up on the bottom. Photosynthetic bacteria bind the particles together (flocculation) and make them settle, then help break down the organic sludge. The water clears and its dissolved oxygen content improves.
Illustrative diagram. Results depend on organic load, sunlight and water temperature.
The benefits for your pond
- Less cloudy water thanks to flocculation of particles.
- Organic sludge removed gradually.
- Better dissolved oxygen content.
- Fewer unpleasant odours, including hydrogen sulphide.
- Breakdown of dead algae and less build-up of bird and other animal droppings.
How to use
Start with the starting dose for your pond volume, continue with one dose per week for 4 consecutive weeks, then switch to one maintenance dose per month.
What dose for my pond?
| Pond volume | Starting dose | Once a week (4 weeks) | Maintenance once a month |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 to 40 m³ | 1.25 L | 0.6 L | 0.5 L |
| 40 to 100 m³ | 1.50 L | 0.7 L | 0.6 L |
| 100 to 200 m³ | 2.00 L | 1.0 L | 0.8 L |
| 200 to 400 m³ | 4.0 L | 2.00 L | 1.50 L |
| 400 to 1,200 m³ | 8.0 L | 3.0 L | 2.00 L |
| 1,200 to 2,000 m³ | 15 L | 6.0 L | 4.0 L |
| 2,000 to 4,000 m³ | 24 L | 10 L | 8.0 L |
| 4,000 to 6,000 m³ | 45 L | 18 L | 15 L |
| 6,000 to 8,000 m³ | 75 L | 30 L | 20 L |
This size: 19 L container, enough to cover the whole start-up phase (starting dose + 4 weeks) of a pond up to 400 m³, i.e. 12 L.
