Make your own very powerful Nitrifying bacteria, easy to make kit 2, year unused shelf life!
Filter starter / booster is a powerful easy to make " home culture" kit. Simply mix the powder and the solution together and 2 days later you have made a highly active live nitrifying liquid
Solution. Simply pour the solution over the filter media. Kusuri filter starter / booster kit cultures true live nitrifying bacteria from a dormant freeze dried state in to billions of starving beneficial bacteria ready to start converting waterborne pollutants Ammonia & Nitrite.
The kit can be made as and when required, it has a 2 year shelf life and be made in full or in portions.
Also available is the Ready Mixed
It is critical that ponds are pollutant free as possible as Ammonia & Nitrite will rapidly cause fish health problems even low levels of Ammonia (1. 5 mg/l or above) can cause stress which leads to poor immune response, seriously effecting a fishes ability to fight disease infection.
Water quality is the key to successful pond keeping, and the importance of low level
pollutants cannot be overstated. Ulcerations, bacterial infections, wounds, will perpetuate if water quality is poor. Adding beneficial bacteria early in the season when feeding resumes, or when adding more stock & particularly after using chemicals in the pond will re-boost filters with vital Nitrifying bacteria. Adding good bacteria on a regular basis is very beneficial and a
powerful water quality management additive.

Bacta-PurŪ Sludgebusters
A sludge layer tends to form on the bottom of ponds that have been in use for
a few years. This is caused by sedimentation of both garden and undigested fish
wastes. Excess waste accumulates on the bottom of the pond in dead corners and
in drains.
The wastes may cause clogging in pumps and filters.
Decomposing wastes produces toxic gasses, which cause noxious odours and may be
the source of serious problems if the surface of the pond freezes. Bacta-PurŪ
Sludgebusters contains beneficial micro-organisms that will efficiently
biodegrade this kind of waste.
Regular use prevents accumulation of organic
solids so that drains, pumps and filters require minimal cleaning. -Coarse sediments, such as leaves, should be removed manually whenever possible by
removing organic waste.
The beneficial micro-organisms in Bacta-PurŪ
Sludgebusters eliminate the causes for noxious odours and reduce oxygen demand in the water, so that more oxygen is made available to the fish.
The end result of bacterial activity is a reduction of the amount of phosphate available to algae, and a biomass with a high protein in content that serves as food for all "animals" in the pond. Less organic waste means less pollution, less ammonia . . . less stress and less disease.

Bacta-PurŪ NUTRIPAK
Beneficial micro-organisms, like all living creatures need minerals and
essential trace elements for their growth and activity. Nutrient limitation
often occurs in decorative ponds due to rapid uptake. Bacta-PurŪ NUTRIPAK
contains the nutrients, minerals and trace elements that are needed by the
bacteria and, if used regularly, it will keep them in optimal condition.

Bacta-PurŪ LITHAQUA
Bacta-PurŪ LITHAQUA is a marine mineral with a high content of minerals
trace elements and carbonates. It brings them into your pond and thereby adjusts
the mineral balance and improves the water quality. Use it as pond substrate for
bacteria to grow on and for fish to play in or use it as a filter medium.
Modern multi-chamber filters, contain mainly plastic media. Those are excellent
supports for bacteria but, they do not add anything to water quality. It is
important to fill at least one filter chamber (preferably the last chamber) with
Bacta-PurŪ LITHAQUA. It provides an enormous surface area for bacteria (10 to
20 times more than most plastic filter media) and provides the bacteria with
essential nutrients. Bacta-PurŪ LITHAQUA neutralises acid pH and helps to
restore carbonate alkalinity. It provides a natural environment, on which
bacteria in Bacta-PurŪ KLEAR and Bacta-PurŪ Sludgebusters can grow. It is an
essential aid to achieve a clear and healthy pond.
