Microbe-Lift Nite-Out II is a concentrate of nitrifying bacteria specially designed to help reduce ammonia and nitrites in fish ponds.
It naturally supports the pond's biological cycle by gradually converting ammonia into nitrite, then nitrite into nitrate, which is much less problematic for fish.
Ideal for starting or strengthening biological filtration, particularly when starting a pond or when ammonia or nitrite levels rise.
NATURALLY REDUCE AMMONIA AND NITRITES IN THE POND
Are you detecting nitrites (NO₂) or ammonia in your pond? Has your biological filtration just been started, or does it seem to need a boost?
Microbe-Lift Nite-Out II directly adds selected nitrifying bacteria to the pond to promote efficient and stable nitrification.
Its purpose is simple: to help your biological filtration convert nitrogen compounds that may be dangerous to fish.
The process naturally takes place in two main stages:
Ammonia → Nitrite → Nitrate
Bacteria of the genus Nitrosomonas help convert ammonia into nitrite. Nitrobacter and Nitrospira bacteria then take over to convert nitrites into nitrates.
Result: you support one of the most important biological mechanisms for maintaining healthy water suitable for fish.
WHY USE NITE-OUT II?
✓ Helps reduce ammonia present in the water
✓ Helps lower nitrite levels
✓ Accelerates the establishment of nitrification
✓ Supports biological filtration that is already operating
✓ Promotes more stable nitrification
✓ Particularly useful when biologically starting a pond
✓ Suitable for ponds containing fish and plants
✓ Easy-to-add liquid formula that can be poured directly into the pond
WHEN SHOULD YOU USE MICROBE-LIFT NITE-OUT II?
Nite-Out II is particularly useful when:
- you are starting a new pond or new biological filtration;
- you notice an increase in nitrites;
- you detect ammonia/ammonium;
- your fish population increases;
- the filter's biological balance needs to be strengthened;
- you want to promote the establishment of nitrifying bacteria in your filtration system.
ADVICE FROM OUR EXPERTS 💧
Always test your water before treatment.
Nite-Out II does not replace investigating the cause of high nitrite or ammonia levels. Overstocking, excessive feeding, an undersized filter, insufficient oxygen, or biological filtration that is not mature enough may also be responsible for the problem.
Nitrifying bacteria also need enough oxygen and a suitable carbonate hardness (KH) to function effectively.
A POND HEAVILY LOADED WITH WASTE?
If your pond contains a lot of sludge or organic matter, it may be beneficial to start with Microbe-Lift Clean & Clear.
Let it work for approximately 1 to 2 days, then add Nite-Out II to subsequently promote the specific activity of nitrifying bacteria.
This approach allows you to work in the correct order:
1. Breakdown of organic waste
2. Strengthening of nitrification

GOOD TO KNOW
Effective nitrification depends on several parameters. Before application, check your pH, KH, oxygenation, and NH₃/NH₄ and NO₂ levels.
If nitrite levels are very high or the fish are behaving unusually, immediately investigate the cause of the imbalance and check that your filtration is working properly.

FAQ
Does Nite-Out II lower nitrite levels?
Yes. Nite-Out II provides nitrifying bacteria that participate in the biological process of converting nitrites into nitrates.
Can Nite-Out II be used in a pond with koi?
Yes. The product is specifically intended for ponds containing fish and is particularly suitable for koi ponds.
Does Nite-Out II also work on ammonia?
Yes. Nitrification begins with the biological conversion of ammonia into nitrite, followed by the conversion of nitrite into nitrate.
Can I use Nite-Out II to start my biological filter?
Yes. This is actually one of its most useful applications. It provides the system with the bacteria needed to establish the nitrification process.
Why should KH be monitored?
Nitrification consumes alkalinity. Insufficient KH can therefore slow the activity of nitrifying bacteria and destabilize the pond's pH.
