Eco Pure from Kusuri
Inhibits blanket weed, flocculates particle matter, increases water clarity, degrades sludge
Eco-Pure is a biological product that has beneficial strains of denitrifying bacteria bio-fixed to a dense powder catalyst. Eco-Pure is non chemical and is 100% fish safe. The powder gives additional benefits of flocculating particle matter in suspension and increases water clarity. Eco-Pure works down to a water temperature of 6c The problem with blanket weed is that once it starts to grow it is like garden weeds It keeps coming back! If you use detrimental chemicals to eradicate it, inevitably it returns! The best way to tackle the weed is to reduce its food sources so natural die back can take place, and further growth is stifled. Eco-pure is designed to be added to the pond regularly to keep the growth low.
With Eco-Pure It is possible to reduce growth down and to maintain the level at about 10mm. Blanket weed can grow very fast it draws its nutrients form the water in form of Nitrates & phosphates and is accelerated by sunlight and oxygen. The bad news for us is that fish actually excrete phosphate and our filters produce Nitrates at end of the nitrifying cycle. In an enclosed pond the levels of both naturally increase over time and before you know it, you can be harvesting blanket weed weekly! Changing water can be fruitless as most public water supplies contain Nitrates & Phosphates.
Eco-Pure added weekly will reduce blanket weed by reducing its food source. Bacteria coat the blanket weed starving the weed of food this will initially break up long strands as it looses strength. After regular use it should reduce down to minimal growth. Every pond is different! In some ponds Eco-Pure can work in 2 weeks, most ponds can take 4 - 8 weeks. Use Eco-Pure early in the season do not wait for it to grow in other words use it in a regular preventive approach.
