Bacta-Pur Treatments

Causes of Poor Water Quality

There are two main kinds of pollution that occur in ponds: solid and soluble. Ponds accumulate excess solids such as fish food, fish wastes and leaves, which result in the formation of sediments deficient in oxygen. These conditions cause the release of toxic pollutants such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, phosphorus, and noxious odors. These same processes lower oxygen levels, stressing fish and causing them to come to the surface to gasp for air. Stress reduces fish growth and makes them more susceptible to diseases.

Natural water quality improvement is largely dependent on teams of beneficial microorganisms. One group starts a process, which is then continued by others. It has been shown in scientific research that, even in natural lakes, essential members of these microbial teams are not always present. This explains, in part, the natural aging of lakes, lack of transparency and sludge accumulation. Lack of critical members of the balanced community of beneficial microorganisms is even more prevalent in decorative ponds due to the use of municipal water, which is sterile.

The Bacta-Pur® System

The Bacta-Pur® System for water quality improvement in decorative ponds consists of:

Bacta-Pur® KLEAR — a balanced community of microorganisms for the reduction of ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. Reduces soluble phosphorous levels and improves water quality.
Bacta-Pur® NUTRIPAK — growth enhancers to assure the presence of essential nutrients for healthy growth of the beneficial microorganisms in Bacta-Pur® KLEAR and Bacta-Pur® Sludgebusters.
Bacta-Pur® Sludgebusters — a balanced community of microorganisms to biodegrade organic wastes (sludge, fish waste etc.). Reduces the occurrence of oxygen deficient sludge areas and reduces odor production (methane, hydrogen sulfide etc.).

These beneficial microorganisms can only grow if all essential trace elements are available for their growth. Water quality varies seasonally and geographically. Bacta-Pur® NUTRIPAK assures the presence of these essential nutrients and provides others to accelerate the establishment of balanced populations.

Benefits of Treatment with the Bacta-Pur® System

The Bacta-Pur® KLEAR and Bacta-Pur® Sludgebusters added to your pond attack both the solid and soluble pollution. The microorganisms in Bacta-Pur® use these wastes as food for their growth. The by-products of this natural process are water, carbon dioxide and bacterial biomass, which is rich in protein. In a pond with koi, goldfish or other animals there is very little accumulation of bacteria, because the animals eat the microbial biomass. Thus, wastes are converted by Bacta-Pur® into natural food for your fishes and invertebrates.

Treatment with the Bacta-Pur® System

Bacta-Pur® KLEAR and Bacta-Pur® Sludgebusters are among the most concentrated cultures available; the guaranteed minimal cell count exceeds 10 cells/mL, which is more than 1000 times other brands. Small regular doses are very effective. Use Bacta-Pur® KLEAR, Bacta-Pur® Sludgebusters and Bacta-Pur® NUTRIPAK regularly to maintain clear water, to control ammonia and nitrite and at the same time to biodegrade sludge.

	Benefits of Bacta Pur

		Bacta-Pur® biotechnological products contain beneficial communities of natural bacteria, which have been on earth for millions of years. All we do is grow them in the right proportions to create powerful teams that improve water quality and accelerate the transformation of organic wastes into bacterial biomass, carbon dioxide and water. EVERY PRODUCTION of Bacta-Pur® biotechnologies is analyzed and cleared for shipment only when CERTIFIED PATHOGEN FREE using techniques from the food industry.
