About the AllPondSolutions Filter Start Bacteria Treatment 250ml

A brand new pond filter is just a box of foam until bacteria colonise it, and until they do, ammonia and nitrite have nowhere to go. This 250ml bottle seeds that population and treats ponds up to 5,688 litres (1,250 gallons).

It helps establish new biological pond filtration systems, and gives all pond filters the essential nutrients that healthy, active bacteria need in order to grow. It is completely safe for all pond fish, plants and biological filters.
