  • Prebiotic Bacteria Enhancer

    Prebiotic Bacteria Enhancer feeds beneficial microbes to stabilise water quality, reduce odour, and support clearer, healthier ponds—naturally and non-biocidally.

Overview

Targeted nutrition for beneficial bacteria

Our Prebiotic Bacteria Enhancer supplies readily-assimilable carbon and micronutrients that selectively feed existing beneficial microbes in ponds and lakes. By boosting microbial activity at the sediment-water interface, it helps convert nutrients into biomass, reduce odours, and stabilise clarity.

Fast Facts

  • Non-biocidal formulation; supports natural microbial processes.
  • Optimises carbon:nitrogen:phosphorus (C:N:P) balance for clarity and stability.
  • Pairs well with SeDox Max (P-binding) and SchlixX Plus (sediment digestion).
  • Easy to dose; suitable for ponds, lakes, and closed-loop waterbodies.
How it works

Prebiotic inputs → stronger bio-processing

By supplying the right blend of bioavailable carbon and trace nutrients, the enhancer increases aerobic microbial activity at the benthic layer. This helps convert dissolved nutrients into stable microbial biomass, reduces internal nutrient recycling, and supports odour reduction through healthier redox conditions.

Where it fits

  • When water is nutrient-rich but carbon-limited (imbalanced C:N:P).
  • As a booster alongside SeDox Max and SchlixX Plus.
  • During start-up/shoulder seasons to stabilise water quality before peak temperatures.
Treatment

Application guidance

Dose depends on volume, flushing, and objectives. Typical ranges:

ObjectiveGuide DoseNotes
Start-up / kick-off0.5–1.0 L per 1,000 m³Prime beneficial microbes at season start or after turnover.
Maintenance0.25–0.5 L per 1,000 m³ / monthAdjust to monitoring (DO, clarity, nutrients, odour).
High-load eventsUp to 1.5 L per 1,000 m³Heavy organics or after extreme weather—reassess after 1–2 weeks.

Always confirm with a site-specific plan. Apply evenly across the surface or at inlets for best distribution.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a biocide?
No. It is a prebiotic—a nutrient blend that supports existing beneficial microbes. It does not kill organisms.
Can I use it with SeDox Max or SchlixX Plus?
Yes. It pairs well with SeDox Max for phosphorus binding and SchlixX Plus for sediment digestion.
How soon will I see results?
Many sites see improved odour and stability within weeks. Full clarity improvements depend on nutrient load, temperature, and flow.
