Bactokoï: the versatile and 100% biological treatment for your pond!
After winter, the ecosystem needs to be restarted. A lack of bacteria quickly leads to pollution, odors, and a dangerous spike in nitrites. Bactokoï is a concentrate of live pond bacteria ideal to start or restart your pond in spring. Used as a starter, it helps to seed your filter and actively participates in the biological balance by eliminating nitrites, ammonia, and toxic nitrates.
Overpowered natural and bacterial filtration
If your pond is heavily populated, it tends to get polluted quickly. Bactokoï starter bacteria will activate and strengthen the natural bacterial filtration of your garden pond. The result: a stunning pond, free of algae and bad odors! The product is also highly successful after an outbreak of cyanobacteria, string algae, or invasive algae.
Muck remover, winter preparation, and fish protection
Used as regular maintenance, Bactokoï acts as a powerful muck remover treatment. It effectively combats bottom sludge, pond muck, organic residue, and accumulating dead leaves. Furthermore, our probiotics directly protect the skin of your Koi carp and outdoor fish against diseases and parasites. Applied in autumn, this product allows your pond to go through winter peacefully; in spring, your water will awaken in much better condition.
