pond substrate: For a strong foundation and clear water in your pond
Simple is how I like it, even when building a pond. Many people look up to the hassle of pumps and filters. That's why I introduce pond substrate: one solution for a healthy pond bottom. Like Bacta Clear, it makes pond maintenance easy. With pond substrate you lay the foundation for clear water and strong plants, without complications.pond substrate works simply. It provides a home for beneficial bacteria and support for your plants. Throw it on the bottom, and you're done. It provides natural purification, eliminating the need for filters. Plus, your plant roots are secure without rotting. With pond substrate , your pond stays naturally balanced, beautifully clear and healthy - easy and environmentally friendly.
CONVENIENCE AND BENEFITS FIRST
Our pond substrate is a gamechanger for any pond enthusiast. Because it has been washed multiple times, say goodbye to dirt and welcome clear water! Plus, it's heavier than your ex's excuses, so it stays right where you want it. And that porosity? Perfect for a filter party and lets your plants grow like they're in a spa.

Oxygenating plants and a bottle of Bacta clear
Purchased: Pond clear package - M
My pond was quite murky, so after a good conversation with Simon, I decided to follow the advice: more oxygen plants and a bottle of bacteria. I ordered the recommended package, but after four days no improvement was visible. Full of disappointment, I contacted customer service. They advised me to be patient and give the process 2-3 weeks. Although I had my doubts about it, I decided to wait anyway. And what turned out? After two weeks, the water started to clear and I even saw frogs that I had never noticed before! Thanks team vdvelde, and apologies for my impatience!

Plants are growing much better now and water is crystal clear
Purchased: POND SUBSTRATE pond substrate - 40 liters
Last year I had a landscaper install a plant filter at my swimming pond, recommending lava and some plants from the local garden center. Unfortunately, things went completely wrong; the plants died one by one and I suffered an algae infestation. After contacting customer service, I was advised to replace the lava with pond substrate and order some more plants. Now, several months later, the plants are growing well, and my filter is finally free of algae.

My little city pond
Purchased: Complete Pond Package - S - Red
I had been dreaming of having a pond in my urban garden for some time, but it always seemed like such a hassle. Online I found a complete package and decided to take the gamble, although I was skeptical about the quality of plants sent through the mail. But to my surprise, everything was delivered neatly and well-packaged. Within no time I had my pond set up. To my delight, after only two months I saw the first water lily bloom, and as icing on the cake I discovered salamanders in my pond. No idea how they got there, but it only adds to the joy. Truly enjoying it!

Blue lily: beautiful!
Purchased: Hardy Blue Water Lily - Nymphaea Blue Queen
Thank you very much for the generous delivery of the swamp iris "Blue Lis".
The new plants have been planted and I am curious to see if they will bloom this year.
There is good news about the water lily "Blue Queen": It is also blooming here in blue - and how beautiful!
