Further Information

Why you need it - Ponds have a natural level of good bacteria which helps to clean and improve the health of the water. The number of natural bacteria may not be sufficient in ponds that have a high nutrient load caused by extensive dead plants, algae, and lower oxygen levels. By adding Pond Clarifier Sludge & Water Quality Bacteria Treatment to a pond, you increase the bacteria, therefore, cleaning the water and speeding up the decomposition of sludge.
