Nitrification is the biological oxidation of the nitrogen compound ammonia to the nitrogen compound nitrite, followed by the oxidation of this nitrite to the nitrogen compound nitrate. Oxidation means combustion. Certain bacteria are capable of this process. They "burn" ammonia and nitrite to provide their cells with energy. The byproduct is nitrate. These specific bacteria need a habitat to do their work; they prefer not to float freely in the water. In natural water, these bacteria are found on the bottom and walls of, for example, a ditch. To support these processes and ensure that one of the most important processes in a pond is maintained, use Nitri-Bac. Nitri-Bac lowers your ammonia and nitrite levels.
Dosage
50ml per 1000 litres, mix the bacteria with 3 litres of water in a watering can and spread the mixture evenly over your pond.
One liter is sufficient for 20,000 liters of pond water including filter. 5 liters is suitable for 100,000 liters of pond water including filter.
The pond must meet the following values:
- KH value: 6 -10
- Ammonia: <0.15 mg/l (NH3)
- pH value: 7-8
- Nitrite: <0.15 mg/l (NO2)
- GH Value: 8-12
- Oxygen: <60-100% (02)
You can use a pond test set for this
