Liquid Beneficial Bacteria for Ponds | Clears Water & Seeds Biofilters | Pond Builder Starter (Step 1) | 16 oz, 33.9 oz & 1 Gallon
Establish a healthy, balanced, and clear pond ecosystem from the start with our Pond Builder Starter Liquid Bacteria. This powerful liquid concentrate is packed with a potent blend of beneficial bacteria, designed to be the essential first step in your pond maintenance routine, especially for new ponds or at the beginning of the season.
✅ Seeds & Boosts Your Biofilter: The fastest way to establish your pond's biological filter. The live, beneficial bacteria immediately colonize your filter media, kick-starting the nitrogen cycle to handle fish waste.
✅ Rapidly Clears New Pond Water: Quickly consumes the excess organic nutrients and debris that cause cloudy, murky water in new pond setups, helping to achieve clarity faster.
✅ Reduces Fish Stress: By establishing a healthy ecosystem and breaking down harmful ammonia and nitrites, this starter treatment helps to create a safer, less stressful environment for introducing new fish.
✅ The Essential First Step: Use this "Step 1" treatment to build a strong biological foundation, then maintain it with our "Step 2" Lake Protector for a season of clear, healthy water.
How It Works: This formula contains billions of live, colony-forming units (CFUs) of specially selected, natural bacteria. When added to your pond, these microbes immediately activate and begin consuming organic waste, ammonia, and nitrites. This rapidly establishes the biofilter, which is the cornerstone of a clean, clear, and healthy pond ecosystem.
