Biobooster, a miracle product for aquatic ponds

Among other articles for pond maintenance, today we will see the Biobooster products from Aquatic Science. If its name can remain enigmatic for neophytes, it is a super effective product for the treatment of filamentous algae. At the same time, Biobooster will bring the organic matter that lines the bottom of the pool to the surface.

This will not only reduce the amount of these materials, there will also be a significant reduction in the silt. Finally, Biobooster is a product that we have tested internally for quite a few years. In this case, we carried out a test in an aquarium to clearly show how the product works.

How to use Biobooster?

The use of Biobooster is relatively easy, and does not require complex preparations. The Biobooster jar comes with a scoop that will be used to measure the amount of product to use. More concretely, it will be a question of sprinkling the basin with granules, depending on the volume of water. It is thus necessary to count approximately two scoops of Biobooster per cubic meter of water.

Once done, it will only take a few minutes for the string algae to start burning. In fact, Biobooster acts very quickly and quite imposingly: you will then notice small bubbles and a lot of white foam forming. Driven by the effect of the oxygen released, the dirt and other organic matter will rise to the surface with it.

This is an impressive phenomenon at first sight, but completely normal. As the dead leaves rise, they can be collected using a dip net .

At the same time, the use of Biobooster will stabilize the hardness of the pool water. Indeed, it is a product based on minerals: it is therefore likely to raise the GH as well as the pH.

After Biobooster: the reinsertion of bacteria into the pelvis

After using Biobooster+, bacteria will be put back into the pool. This is an important step in the maintenance of the pond, considering that Biobooster will destroy purifying bacteria necessary for the pond. It is therefore a powerful product, but rest assured: it is safe for fish. On the contrary, thanks to the rebalancing of the minerals of the pond, the fish will find themselves in better health.

A preventive treatment against thread algae

So the next step is to put the bacteria back. It is also a preventive treatment against thread algae. Of course, many remain convinced that an ecosystem is made by itself. And it is absolutely true. However, the smaller the pool, the more it will heat up. It will surely encounter difficulties in protecting itself from algae and other parasites.

In this case, a garden pond is not a large natural pond. It didn't form thousands of years ago and basically it's an artificially created structure. It is therefore quite logical that we build our biology as we go along. And, with time and careful monitoring, fewer and fewer treatments can be done.

Filtration, destruction of waste and bacterial activity

Biobooster acts as a real regenerator for the pond, and promotes filtration and the activity of detritivorous bacteria. These granules are intended to boost the activity of detritivorous micro-organisms, essential to the well-being of the pool. This product therefore helps to avoid mud in the pond , and naturally reduces filaments and other organic waste.

In details, Biobooster+ is a concentrated formulation, but devoid of heavy metals , phytos agents and toxic products for fish. On the contrary, the fish are literally invigorated after the treatment: they become healthier and more vigorous!

Biobooster+ and Bactogen: the winning combo

Once added to the pond, the concentrated beads begin to diffuse. Within a few hours, the effect on filaments and other waste is already clearly visible. Biobooster+ will then amplify the development of detritivorous (Bactogen) and nitrifying bacteria. This will lead to a drastic reduction in the consequences of excess organic matter.

The joint use of Biobooster+ and Bactogen thus guarantees an unequaled result, for a minimum of 4 months. It should be noted that the dosage of product to be used will depend on the volume of water present in the pool.

Some important reminders to properly maintain your pond

Pond maintenance is not complex, but must still be done by considering a few basics. In this case, it is essential to carry out a systematic test before doing any treatment based on products for the pelvis. This will provide information on the general condition of the pool, as well as the consequent measures that will have to be taken.

Among other parameters to check:

• pH

• total hardness

• partial hardness

• ammonia level

• the nitrite level
