POND-VIVE BACTERIA: The natural, biological way to clean large ponds.
Our special blend of bacteria is designed to:
Reduce sludge build-up
Eliminate pond odors
Improve water clarity
Reduce oxygen demand
Eliminate excess nutrients
Pond-Vive is a proprietary blend of specialized bacteria, formulated specifically for the task of lake and pond maintenance. Pond-Vive contains specialized bacterial strains as well as other necessary ingredients needed to support these bacterial strains in a lake or pond setting. Our unique blend of bacteria accomplishes a number of very specific tasks. Certain bacterial strains specialize in the removing of excess ammonia, nitrates and phosphorus from the water. These excess nutrients, if not removed, can stimulate nuisance aquatic growth. Other strains focus on clarifying the murky water caused from animal and plant wastes, while simultaneously reducing or eliminating the odors stemming from those wastes.
This product works great! Ponds treated with Pond-Vive are typically treated every two weeks. Ponds that are really dirty can be treated more often, or at a higher dose to speed up the cleaning process without any threat to fish or other aquatic life.
DOSAGE RATES: Ponds treated with Pond-Vive are treated based on surface size — not depth. Because the bacteria works along the bottom of the pond the depth does not matter.
Initial Dose - 12 pounds per acre (or 24 eight oz. bags)
Maintenance Dose - Every 2 weeks - 6 pounds per acre (or 12 eight oz. bags)
Before considering buying any additional fish for your pond you should consider whether your pond is ready for its first fish (if a new pond) or is ready for some extra fish if an existing pond.
