Cold Water Bacteria

Cold water bacteria works great for jump starting ponds in the spring. In general, use cold water bacteria in water temperatures below 50°F to accelerate the decomposition of leaves and other organic matter during colder months of the year.

Cold Water Bacteria

Specially Formulated for Pond Winterization

Microbe-Lift Autumn/Winter Prep helps accelerate the decomposition of leaves, sediment and other organic matter during the fall and winter months. It will also jump start your pond to a healthier environment in the spring.

Microbe-Lift Autumn/Winter Prep is a two-part system of liquid bacteria and dry, water soluble packets containing a blend of cellulase enzymes, cellulase-producing bacteria and a cold weather bacteria. The cellulase enzymes, along with the cellulase-producing bacteria, are the key to accelerating the breakdown of leaves, organic sediment and sludge all winter long. Continues to provide sustained biological activity even in water temperatures under 40°F. (4°C.)

Aquascape Cold Water Beneficial Bacteria contains 7 pure strains of concentrated beneficial bacteria that work quickly cleaning and balancing your water garden. This Cold Water Beneficial Bacteria works at temperatures below 50F or 10C. Water gardens are enclosed ecosystems, which sometimes factors like fish load, uneaten fish food, organics such as leaves, sludge and unwanted debris may disrupt the balance. Aquascape Cold Water Beneficial Bacteria contains a specific combination of bacteria that are most effective at doing two jobs- reducing organic material such as leaves and pond sludge and reducing ammonia, nitrite and excess nutrients such as phosphate that are known to cause poor water quality and unsightly water conditions.

Question 1: How does Arctic Blend’s beneficial bacteria remove ammonia from frigid winter pond water when it’s a known fact that “nitrifying bacteria” which keeps ammonia and nitrites at zero does not perform in cold water?
Answer 1: Arctic Blend is not a “nitrifying bacteria”. Arctic Blend’s beneficial bacteria is formulated with billions of natural unique microbes that absorb the ammonia from your winter fish pond water. Then these microbes process the ammonia through their system, rendering the ammonia harmless to your fish. You never have the common “nitrifying bacteria nitrogen cycle” which is, high ammonia then high nitrites and at last, less toxic nitrates when using Arctic Blend. 

Question 2: Why should I worry about the ammonia in the winter months, my fish are not eating so they do not produce waste. No waste, no ammonia?
Answer 2: Your fish produce more ammonia by breathing than they do from their waste. So they are producing deadly ammonia all winter.
