How
(and why) does Bio-Claire® Original 'All in One' Pond
Conditioner work?
Only a few minutes after you have introduced the Bio-Claire®
Granules to your Pond, the Enzymes ‘attack’ the
fish waste to turn it into food for the bacteria to multiply
and allow the ionisation of any ammonia in the water into
nitrogen gas. This nitrogen then escapes through the pond’s
surface, thereby avoiding the further formation of ‘Nitrite’
and ‘Nitrate’ – the latter of which being
responsible for the survival of Blanket Weed and other algae.
Each 100 grams of Bio-Claire® Original Pond Conditioning
Granules contain approximately 200,000,000 bacteria. (10 times
as much in the Power-Starter!) Once activated, these bacteria
split every 20 minutes – So – after just 20 minutes
(or so) there will be 400,000,000 bacteria – after 40
minutes 800,000,000 – and – after one hour, there
will be 1.6 BILLION bacteria!

The
reason for keeping up the regular Maintenance doses is
that due to a normal ‘life-cycle’ the bacteria
tends to stop splitting (rather than dying off) about
5 weeks after activation. It is proven that if the Bio-Claire®
maintenance dose is introduced before the end of that
cycle (i.e. on a monthly basis) then the natural balance
of the pond water is adequately maintained.
You will not need any other material to keep your pond
water healthy. In fact, it is advisable to use ONLY Bio-Claire®
as an additive to your pond during any Bio-Claire®
treatment period. |
