How PondClear Works Water clarity problems are caused by rotting vegetation, leaves, twigs, and fish waste that have accumulated in your pond. PondClear liquid formula is a special blend of highly concentrated beneficial bacteria designed to promote a clean and balanced ecosystem.

PondClear is available in convenient water-soluble packets (WSP) which make treating ponds a breeze. There's no need to cut, tear, scoop or pour PondClear, just throw the packets in your pond and let your water do the rest. In addition to the powerful probiotic bacteria strains, PondClear packets are formulated with a maintenance dose of EcoBoost PRx, a natural phosphate binder ensuring long-lasting water clarity. Pond owners looking to try PondClear for the first time or customers on a budget can take advantage of our PondClear Liquid Gallon. Liquid PondClear contains the same powerful beneficial bacteria and enzymes and is more cost-effective, but it does not bind phosphates. Can I just do one application of PondClear? Just like vitamins, consistent use over time will provide the most benefit. Natural decomposition, seasonal changes, and storm runoff will continue to affect your pond. Regular beneficial bacteria treatments using PondClear should continue, as well. In addition, PondClear natural bacteria and enzymes are developed for optimal results utilizing the listed dosage rate, and using the whole gallon at one time will not achieve the results you’re looking for. How can I tell if PondClear is working? Measuring progress in a large body of water can take a lot of work. While most customers see results in 2-4 weeks, it’s essential to remember that murky water teeming with suspended organics did not happen overnight, and beneficial bacteria treatments will take time. We recommend doing a jar test to see progress truly. It’s simple to do. Take a clear glass jar, dunk it into your pond, fill it with water, cap it, and keep it in the dark. Repeat with a new jar every two weeks throughout the treatment period. Compare results. Suppose you see a lot of sediment on the bottom of your jars. In that case, your pond may have a clay bottom with turbid, murky water caused by sediment, not organic debris. Can PondClear be used with other water treatments? Yes, we recommend a proactive approach to pond management. Use PondClear in combination with Airmax EcoBoost PRx, MuckAway and Pond Dye to keep your pond looking great. EcoBoost PRx is designed to bind phosphates quickly, safely, and effectively, making them unusable as a food source for plant growth. MuckAway is the Original Muck Reducer leading the industry as the most effective and proven solution for muck reduction. MuckAway is formulated with specialized beneficial bacteria that work from the bottom up, digesting and eliminating several inches of pond muck each month. You can also further enhance the look of your pond by adding Airmax Pond Dye. Pond dye beautifies your pond while providing fish shade and protection from the sun and predators, such as herons and other wildlife. Does PondClear work without aeration? Yes, PondClear works in ponds and lakes with or without aeration. However, the aerobic bacteria found in PondClear require oxygen. For best results, we recommend using aeration to create an oxygen-rich environment, giving the beneficial bacteria a performance boost. Can I use PondClear in a small pond, water garden, or koi pond? PondClear is designed for use in large ponds and lakes, however, many pond owners have successfully used PondClear to treat their small ponds and water gardens. It's important to talk with a pond expert to get the proper dosage for water gardens, koi ponds, water features, and even aquaponic applications. Will PondClear kill algae? PondClear is not an algaecide, and it will not kill algae in your pond or lake. PondClear contains bacteria that consumes suspended organics and excessive nutrients, removing the fuel that contributes to excessive algae growth. If you're looking for an algaecide, however, consider Airmax Algae Defense, a fast-acting, liquid pond algaecide that controls a broad spectrum of algae. PondClear contains beneficial bacteria formulated to promote a clean and balanced ecosystem.
