Algae Eater Natural Pond Vacuum Kit

Natural water purifiers vacuum your pond and keep the water free of algae

Algae infestation is a common problem in ponds, often due to excess nutrients that stimulate algae blooms. Chemical products sometimes bring more misery on your neck. That's why we developed the Algae Eater & Natural Pond Vacuum Package: a sustainable, organic solution that works without the hassle. In this package, we combine the natural power of pond snails, mussels, and moss balls, which are known for their efficient filtration capabilities. These natural purifiers work as a team to absorb excess nutrients and suspended algae from your pond water, greatly reducing algae formation. They continuously provide a clean and clear pond environment through their tireless appetite for algae and small debris. But that's not all. We enhance the effectiveness of these live filters with the addition of Bacta Clear, a biological agent that restores and promotes balance in your pond water. Bacta Clear supports your pond's natural ecosystem by adding beneficial bacteria that help break down organic waste and prevent new algae buildup. Forget expensive and high-maintenance equipment. Our package keeps your pond naturally clean, leaving you more time to enjoy a clear and vibrant pond.

Tip from Simon: More plants in your pond is always better.

Too few plants increases the risk of algae and plant death. If necessary, choose additional plants you like in addition to the package.

Summer is nice, but not for my pond....

Every year I suffered from annoying algae growth in my pond, which greatly disturbed the clear view. The usual recommendations were to use chemical algaecides or buy an expensive pond vacuum cleaner, but I wanted to avoid that because of the cost and the unnatural aspect. After some research, I came across the Algae Eater Natural Pond Duster Package and decided to give it a shot. The package included snails, mussels, moss balls and Bacta Clear. Within weeks, I noticed a significant improvement: the algae was almost completely gone and the water was remarkably clearer. Now, months later, my pond remains clear without any return of the algae. This natural package was the perfect solution for my pond!

Frequently asked questions about the Algae Eater Natural Pond Vacuum Package

Pond Advice

The package contains a carefully selected mix of natural water purifiers: pond snails, mussels, moss balls, and a dose of Bacta Clear, a special blend of beneficial pond bacteria that helps improve water quality and reduce algae.

The snails and mussels act as natural filters that consume algae and small suspended debris. The moss balls absorb excess nutrients that would otherwise feed algae. Bacta Clear adds beneficial bacteria that break down organic waste, depriving algae of their food source.

Yes, the package is designed to be effective in a wide range of pond types and sizes. However, it is important to adjust the amount of each component to the size of your pond for optimal results.

Most users notice an improvement in water clarity and a decrease in algae within two to three weeks. For best results, it is important to apply the package regularly and ensure that the pond remains well maintained.

No complicated maintenance required! Make sure your pond is adequately circulated and avoid overfeeding fish, as excess food can contribute to nutrient surpluses that feed algae. It is also advisable to assess the population of snails and mussels annually and supplement as needed for continued effectiveness.

Oxygen plants are a must for any pond!
Sufficiently oxygenating underwater plants in the pond means you will NOT need a pump and filter. Oxygenating plants filter the water and block the sun. This causes the water to heat up less which reduces the formation of algae. Oxygen plants also provide shelter for fish from impending danger. All of our oxygen plants are hardy and are supplied from our own aquatic plant nursery with a 100% growth and flowering guarantee. For oxygen plants, I recommend a minimum of 10 to 12 individual plants per m³ (1000 liters of water) and 2 baskets of 4 plants per m². The amount needed depends on how quickly you want the pond to balance and your visual requirements.
