Winter can be harsh on the life in your water garden pool, especially with those extremely cold polar vortices or just darn cold temperatures that keep coming. UltraClear® Winter Blend has a blend of good bacteria that protects your water garden pond during the cold months. This will protect your fish from poor water quality in fall, winter, and early spring.
Add this when the temperatures are below 55 and the bacteria continue working below the ice and snow.
The biggest cause of fish death is ammonia. During the winter the Winter Blend will remove the toxic ammonia and helps to reduce sludge buildup. These bacteria are not the nitrifying bacteria found in the Spring and Summer UltraClear® formulations. These cold water bacteria absorb ammonia from the water during the entire winter months. When Spring comes, then the use of our UltraClear® line should be routinely used.

UltraClear Barley Straw Pellets give you a safe, effective, natural way to treat ponds for clarity and can be safely used with all other UltraClear products. The pellets are cleaner and easier to use than the bales (and requires a lot less space than the unsightly bales). UltraClear Barley Pellets are 100% safe for fish, birds and plants.
UltraClear Barley Pellets are fortified with humic acid prior to the pelletizing process. Humic acid enhances water quality, water softening and balances out the effects of phosphate in the pond water.
The slow decay of the barley pellets produce essential, beneficial bacteria that helps maintain clarity in the pond. The optimized pellet size offers maximum surface area for controlled decay. It is not a chemical. UltraClear Barley Pellets can be used during spring, summer and fall.
One pound treats 1000 gallons every 4 weeks. Sprinkle throughout the pond or place pellets in media bag (ordered as an option) for placement in pond. Treat monthly during the season for best results.

UltraClear? Potassium Permanganate Solution has withstood the test of time. Fish keepers have found it to be one of the best against external fish infections from fungi, bacteria, and parasites (Trichodinia, Costia, Chilodonella and flukes). It is also effective to improve water quality and clarity by clearing cloudy water of organics and algae.
The strong oxidizing effect makes a light pink color that will dissipate.
One bottle (16 oz) treats a 6,000 gallon pond. Use half strength for routine maintenance. For parasite and bacteria dose, repeat every 3-4 days if needed.
