What’s in the
products?
Heterotrophic Bacteria
Heterotrophic bacteria are
responsible for the reduction and decomposition of organics
including pond sludge. Heterotrophic strains of bacteria are easy
to source and found in many products currently on the market for
various purposes including waste water treatment.
Lithotrophic Bacteria
The most common and important
types of lithotrophic bacteria in a water garden are nitrosomonas
and nitrobacter. These are vital in the active removal of ammonia
and nitrite caused by the decomposition caused by the heterotrophic
strains. There are many theories on the name of the actual
bacterial genus responsible but most agree on these two strains.
Lithotrophs are harder to source and reproduce at a slower rate,
making them relatively more expensive.
Instructions for
use:
How Much: One Tab
treats up 100 gallons of pond water. If your pond or container
water garden is less than 100 gallons one full tab can be used
safely.
How Often: For new
ponds, treat two times weekly for the first two weeks. For mature
ponds, treat weekly.
How To: Simply
toss the Bubble Tabs into the area in the pond with the most
circulation or directly into problem areas.
Please Note:
Water temperature should
be a minimum of 60F or 15C. This product is very powerful and will
quickly go to work consuming sludge. We recommend a higher water
temperature to insure that biological filter systems will be
functioning and able to handle the extra bio load.
Keep out of reach of children.

How it
works: Accumulation of nitrogen is one of the most
critical problems of a re-circulating "water re-use" system.
Nitrogen in the system, commonly referred to as Total
Ammonia-Nitrogen (TAN), is a by-product of protein metabolism. TAN
is excreted from the gills of fish as they digest food and is
produced when bacteria decomposes organic waste solids within the
system. When the water in a system has a pH of about 7.0, the
system is stable and the majority of TAN is ionized and does not
adversely affect the system. But when a system has a pH of about
9.0, up to 30 percent of TAN may not be ionized and levels of
ammonia-nitrogen can become extremely toxic to
fish.
Nitrite-nitrogen results from
the oxidation of ammonia-nitrogen. When nitrifying bacteria
(nitrosomonas) consume ammonia-nitrogen for energy, they produce
nitrite-nitrogen as a by-product. Nitrite-nitrogen then binds with
hemoglobin to form methemoglobin, which is not capable of binding
and transporting oxygen. This ultimately suffocates the fish. In
most cases re-circulating systems with mature nitrifying bacteria
colonies should maintain nitrite-nitrogen concentrations below 1
mg/l. Fortunately, nitrobacter bacteria, also present within the
system, use nitrite-nitrogen for energy and produce a much less
harmful nitrate-nitrogen
by-product.
Nitrifying bacteria are the
foundation of biological filtration and safely grow on all surfaces
of the aquatic environment, including substrate, plumbing and the
walls of the tank.
