Waterlife Bacterlife P 1 Litre
Reduces ammonia levels in ponds Activates pond filters Digests organic sludge in ponds
The natural weekly pond treatment
Bioculture
BacterLife P is a blend of 2 essential groups of bacteria that arecultivated specifically for ponds. One group of bacteria break down solid fish waste, uneaten food and plant debris, whilst the other actively feeds on ammonia, reducing toxicity levels.For use in ponds only.
1 litre treats 27,000 litres / 6,000 gallons
The nitrogen cycle
Ammonia/ammonium (very toxic) excreted by fish is oxidised into nitrite (still toxic) before being broken down into nitrate which is absorbed by pond plants as food. When used regularly, BacterLife P speeds up the nitrogen cycle, reducing waste toxicity, improving water quality and reducing organic sludge.
When to use BacterLife P
- If high ammonia or nitrite levels are present
- If there is an excess of food or dead vegetation at the bottom of the pond
- To boost existing filtration's biological capabilites
- Replacing bacteria after some pond treatments
- Replenishing bacteria after filter maintenance
- Revitalising filtration in Spring
- When adding new fishAssisting in the break down of algae after the use of algicides and reducing the risks of oxygen starvation.
- Monitor water quality weekly with Waterlife test kits.
