All natural powder formulation provides a non-chemical alternative to using (ALUM), to bind problem-causing phosphate in pond water. This all-natural powder formulation will also buffer pH and provide approximately 70 beneficial trace minerals for fish health and assist beneficial pond bacteria. It will also provide minor flocculation (settling) of mud & clay particles, and aid in reducing ammonia.

Benefits:
Non-chemical alternative to remove phosphate: Binds Excess Phosphates! This is a safe and natural product that allows you to remove phosphate from water bodies. .
Adds beneficial trace minerals: Adds trace minerals that fish need to thrive! This product adds approximately 70 trace minerals to the pond ecosystem.
Stimulates Pond Biology: Boosts for the natural bacteria living in your pond. Including the beneficial bacteria from our water soluble packets and sludge and muck products are also enhanced.

Buffers pH

Directions:
Mix in a clean pail with 2 – 3 gallons of pond water. Stir the solution until the water is completely brown. Evenly distribute this mixture by pouring it directly from the pail along the shoreline or spray over entire surface. 2 cups (16 ounces) per ¼ are pond, every 2 weeks for maintenance, bacteria and fish health. (Keep stirring as you move along to keep the heavier particles suspended in the water.
Or Apply 2 1/2 lbs. per acre foot of water (325,829 gallons) to reduce phosphorous levels by approximately .05 ppm. Application rates vary depending on phosphorus levels in the pond. Can go 3-5 pound per acre foot.

The application can be from a boat as you travel along and spread the power evenly over the pond surface. You’ll see the water turn milky but will clear up after a bit.

Phosphates enter the pond from storm runoff and fertilized lawns which can wreak havoc in our pond ecosystem. The Phosphate acts like super charge fertilizer for plants and algae, causing algae blooms, excess weeds and muck build up. If left untreated the pond could lose oxygen and leave the fish in poor health.
