UltraClear® Biological Clarifier improves water clarity, cleans water, reduces organic build-up, removes toxic ammonia and nitrite, and removes odors! Fight back against the problems caused by fertilizer run-off, fish and animal waste, dead leaves and grass -- restoring aquatic environments to their natural health and beauty. This environmentally friendly, natural formula is easy to use and safe for fish and wildlife. Biological Pond Clarifier is entirely composed of two types of beneficial bacteria: chemolithotrophic and heterotrophic. Chemolithotrophic bacteria (nitrifiying bacteria) are aerobic bacteria that transform toxic ammonia to nitrite, then to nitrate. They also consume phosphates, which frequently cause algae growth. Heterotrophic bacteria digest organic sediment and dissolved carbon, converting nitrate into non-toxic nitrogen gas. Combined, these bacteria reduce toxins and nutrients that cause pond clarity issues. Using Biological Pond Clarifier in the spring will help your pond get rid of ammonia from debris and waste that built up over the winter. As the season progresses, Biological Clarifier maintains water clarity and quality.
