Microbe-Lift Filter Gel

Microbe-Lift Filter Gel is a technology breakthrough becauseit’s the first product that puts the bacteria right where you want it and it stays there!. Microbe-Lift Filter Gel will quickly attach to and populate any filter media including foam, strapping, floss, bio balls, ceramic media and K1 etc.

Filter Gel will rapidly establish the necessary biological activity in your filter which in turn will stabilize your pond’s environment quickly.

Microbe-Lift Filter Gel will also help restore this activity to your filter when you clean or change the media in your filter.

Microbe-Lift Filter Gel Product Features:

• Easily applies to filters pads/medaia without running
• Contains the same spectrum of bacteria as Microbe-Lift/PL
• Contains naturally occurring biopolymers, helping organisms quickly attach to the media allowing 80% reduction in filter start-up time
• Helps to stabilize the pond’s environment quickly upon startup and to eliminate transient instability that can occur when filter media is cleaned or replaced
• Allows for more frequent cleaning of filters without subsequent instability if a pond has a high olids loading where more frequent cleaning is benficial
• Reduces the frequency of cleaning by accelerating the breakdown of organic solids that lead to high maintenance requirements.
• Helps to establish denitrification in the filter which can lower nitrate levels in the pond.

Application:

Inoculate (spread) the Microbe-Lift Filter Gel directly to the filter pad or media. The Filter Gel will absorb into the pad/media by letting it set for 1 to 2 hours before inserting the medaia back into the filter or skimmer. After the media has been inserted back i to the filter, turn off the recirculating pump for 1 to 2 hours, providing that the water can maintain adequate oxygenation without circulation for this amount of time. Repeat the application after each cleaning/replacement of filter pas/media.

For normal maintenance use Microbe-Lift Clean & Clear

Microbe-Lift Super Start Bead Filter Bacteria

Microbe-Lift Super Start Bead Filter Bacteria has been specially formulated for all biological (bead filters). Like most types of mechanical/biological filters, bead filters rely on the use of a media that provides a high surface area/volume ratio. This allows for the support of the necessary biomas, in the form of a biofilm, to properly remove organic and inorganic waste from the water.

Within this biofilm it is possible to to carry out aerobic, facultative anerobic, anaerobic and chemosynthetic processes. In english, this actually means that we develop and grow various forms of bateria on our filter media which will result in the complete nitrifaction process and also develop the biomas which totally covers the bead media and becomes sticky, it is this sticky biomas that traps the small particles as part of the normal filtration process which results in clear clean water.

Microbe-Lift Super Start contains all these bacteria capable of carrying out all of the necessary processes for the optimum performance of bead filters.

When used according to the recommended dosage instructions Microbe-Lift Super Start will provide the following benefits:

• Rapid establishment of organic removal capabilities
• Rapid establishment of the nitrogen cycle including nitrification and denitrification
• Reduces the build up of residue in the filter, reducing maintenance and improving the filters efficiency
• Promotes the breakdown of risidual medications, like tea tree oils and formalin products which are inhibitory to most bacteria after use
• Promotes the rapid recover of your filter after the use of medications and antibiotics
• Effective over a wide pH range
• Reduces ammonia nitrogen levels
• Significantly reduces noxious odours caused by algae, fish waste and urine
• Reduces hydrogen sulphide, which creates strong offensive odours

Microbe-Lift Super Start Directions For Use:

When starting up a filter for the first time, apply Microbe-Lift Super Start for 4 weeks. Clean the filter the apply for a further two weeks. For regular maintenance for your system use in conjunction with Microbe-Lift Clean & Clear.

Please note that this product is not just for new filters and can be used whenever you feel it necessary, for example wneh introducing new fish and following medication and or treatments to your pond.
