Keeping it simple is what it's all about. The world of pond care seemed like a jungle, full of different products - half with an "A," half with a "B," and then those special varieties for koi- or swimming ponds. Too complicated, I thought. That's why I am proud to introduce: BACTA CLEAR.

It not only starts up your pond, but also cleans the bottom sludge, gives your plants exactly what they need and keeps both suspended and filamentous algae at bay. And that's not all. BACTA CLEAR goes further by efficiently breaking down excess fish food, feces, decaying leaves and dead algae, making your pond a model of biological balance.

The best pond bacteria for the pond: BACTA CLEAR

In a pond, nitrifying bacteria are important. These bacteria help convert waste products into CO2. This is necessary for the growth of oxygen plants, which need CO2 to grow. BACTA CLEAR contains not 1 but 2 strain bacteria that both ensure clear water and prevent algae growth. In addition, BACTA CLEAR is 100% eco and not harmful to humans, plants and animals.

How BACTA CLEAR prevents algae blooms in your pond

Algae thrive in an environment with excess nutrients such as nitrate and phosphate. BACTA CLEAR helps reduce these nutrients by introducing beneficial bacteria that break down organic matter and convert it into harmless substances. This reduces the opportunity for algae to grow explosively. In addition, BACTA CLEAR creates a healthy pond bottom that retains beneficial bacteria, contributing to a lasting balance in your pond.

The natural power of BACTA CLEAR for a clear pond

BACTA CLEAR uses biological processes to improve the clarity of your pond water. The special bacteria in BACTA CLEAR break down organic waste, resulting in fewer nutrients for algae. By using BACTA CLEAR regularly, you create a pond environment where algae have no chance to thrive. This means less cloudy water and a more visually appealing pond without chemical interventions.

Save money with BACTA CLEAR: The cost-effective solution for algae control

Instead of buying expensive chemicals that often provide only temporary solutions, BACTA CLEAR offers a sustainable and cost-effective approach to algae control. By supporting your pond's natural ecosystem, you reduce the need for constant intervention and maintenance. With BACTA CLEAR, you are investing in a long-term solution that will keep your pond healthy and clear, without the cost and worry of traditional methods.

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.
