Pond Start – Cycling Bacteria

POND START – CYCLING BACTERIA

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Animal Wellbeing’s Pond Start is a powerful concentrated solution designed to enhance the health of your pond by introducing specifically selected beneficial bacteria strains. This product effectively colonises various surfaces such as rock, wood, and substrate, converting toxic ammonia and nitrite into less harmful nitrate. Ideal for new and established ponds, Pond Start accelerates the cycling process and replenishes essential bacteria populations, ensuring a stable and thriving aquatic environment. Maintaining a healthy bacteria population is vital, as deficiencies can lead to dangerous ammonia spikes, posing severe risks to fish health and overall pond stability.

DOSAGE INSTRUCTIONS
New Ponds: Entire bottle treats 1000L of total pond water volume
Established Ponds: 1 capful (10ml) per 100L water volume, twice weekly
Overdosing: Safe – will not harm pond inhabitants

PROCEDURE
Calculate pond water volume • Determine if new or established pond • Measure required dosage • Add directly to pond water • Distribute evenly throughout pond • Allow bacterial colonisation (24-48 hours) • Monitor ammonia/nitrite levels • Continue regular dosing for established ponds

STORAGE (Product)
Store in cool, dry place • Keep container sealed • Avoid direct sunlight • Maintain temperature below 25°C • Use within 2-3 years of opening • Check batch date before use • Shake gently before each use

POND CYCLING GUIDELINES
