Dosage rates

Seeding dosage:  This is the first dosage and will provide a significant boost to the system.  Double the maintenance dose determined below.  Many water systems will not need treatment during the cold winter months.  Anticipate doing a seeding dosage once a year in early spring.

Maintenance dosage:  3 to 5 oz. per 1000 gallons per week during months when the water temperature is above 50o F (10o C).  Microorganisms are not significantly active when temperatures are under 50o F. 

  • 3 oz. per 1000 gallons for systems in good shape (low stocking density of fish, adequate filtration, low ammonia, and good aeration/circulation)
  • 5 oz. per 1000 gallons for systems in need of significant organic reduction and systems with high stocking densities.
  • 4 oz. per 1000 gallons per week is the average dosage rate.  Most systems will do fine with this amount.

A concentrated 10X formula is also available.

 

Application instructions

Pour near water falls, pump outlets, filtration, and fountains where water movement will circulate product through out system.  If system is equipped with a filter, pour half the dosage

into the filter, half into the pond.  Ponds with none of the above should have the product poured evenly around the edges.

 

Handling and storage

Storage temperature of 40o F to 75o F is optimal.  Freezing should be avoided as it will change the look and smell of the bugs with a slight reduction in microbial count.  High heat (above 90o F) should also be avoided, especially long term exposure.

Shelf life is 18 months under optimal storage temperatures.
