Lake and Pond Liquid Bacteria Bottle, 1-Quart

Natural ponds rely on a healthy population of beneficial bacteria to consume nutrients that would otherwise support algae, aquatic weeds and other unwanted items. Convenient, easy to apply Orb-3 Lake & Pond Liquid Bacteria leaves water fresh, clear and sparkling, while boosting the beneficial bacteria population in your lake or pond. The custom blend of select strains of beneficial bacteria in Orb-3 Lake & Pond Liquid Bacteria are formulated to reduce the occurrence of cloudy water. Reduce sludge-generating organics. By accelerating the natural digestion of organic contaminate in both aerobic and facultative water bodies, Orb-3 Lake & Pond Liquid Bacteria reduces excess nutrients that feed algae and muck buildup and allows water to maintain clarity and beauty.
