UltraClear® Barley Straw Pellets
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.
Description
Barley straw pellets serve as a natural and effective solution for managing algae growth and enhancing water clarity in ponds. As these pellets break down, they release compounds that prevent the proliferation of new algae without resorting to harmful chemicals. This method is particularly beneficial for maintaining clear water, reducing sludge accumulation, and minimizing pond maintenance, making it an excellent choice for environments that support fish and wildlife.
The use of barley straw pellets offers several advantages. While they do not eliminate existing algae, they effectively prevent new growth, contributing to improved water clarity through the release of natural humic acids. Additionally, these pellets are safe for aquatic ecosystems, posing no threat to fish, plants, or wildlife. Their convenient mesh bag packaging allows for easy application, and their concentrated form ensures quicker results. With a longevity of up to six months, placing the pellets in areas with strong water flow, such as near pumps or waterfalls, maximizes their effectiveness.
