Warning! Before purchasing flocculant it’s important to understand that floccing doesn’t always work. It can be hit and miss depending on many factors. If you need advice on whether floccing is right for you, contact us or read this article.

Clearwater Flocculant 10L

Clearwater Flocculant clears your water of inorganic content, e.g. sand, soil, silt etc, through the process of floccing. The flocculant introduces an opposing ionic charge to the suspended particles in your water causing them to clump together and sink to the bottom. Flocculant can also bind and sink phosphorus from the water column making it unavailable for algal growth. 

Biostim Liquid 20L

Biostim Liquid clears your water of decaying organic material that causes cloudiness. It is the fastest acting probiotic in the Biostim range. The solution spreads quickly through your entire water column and wakes the microbes up. These “good” microbes actively produce enzymes, speeding up the breakdown of organic waste. This brings clarity to water that has a lot of organic content in it, e.g. decaying leaves, branches, duck poo, dead insects and other aquatic organisms, including microorganisms. 

Clearwater Flocculant Application

Dosage suggestion

The following dose rate is a guideline that may need to be increased or decreased according to individual conditions, such as soil type, water temperature, volume of suspended material etc. More accurate dose rates can be established by onsite testing. 

We suggest starting with 20L Clearwater Flocculant per 1,000,000L of dam water. Before applying, dilute the Clearwater Flocculant with 5-10 parts fresh water to 1 part Clearwater Flocculant. 

How to apply

Spray/pour your diluted Clearwater Flocculant over the entire surface area of water. Thorough mixing and circulation is then required by pump, aerator, or motorboat, so the product has contact with the suspended particles in the water.  

After a period of mixing, small pinhead particles will become visible and then increase in size to match-head sized particles. At this point, mixing should stop to allow the particles to settle overnight. Repeat the process if required. Good initial coverage and thorough mixing will result in faster, better results and less product needed. Good results can still be achieved without thorough mixing but more product may be required. 

Biostim Liquid Application 

Biostim Liquid should be diluted at the rate of one part Biostim Liquid to nine parts pond/dam water and then be sprayed or poured over as much of the water’s surface area as possible. Benefits are usually seen after just a couple of weeks with sludge/organic matter being the most significantly reduced over the course of summer when bacteria are most active. Problem areas can be treated heavily without having to treat the entire water body. Biostim is safe to use at higher doses. 

Dose Rates  

The following dose rates are guidelines that may need to be increased or decreased according to your individual conditions. Results will depend on factors such as sludge composition, water temperature, and water movement (circulated, aerated water provides best results).  

It’s recommended you treat your water, monitor the results, and adjust your dose rate based on these results.  

Monthly Dose Rate—Large Water Bodies

1L Biostim Liquid per megalitre (million litres).

Monthly Dose Rate—Small Water Bodies

20ml Biostim Liquid per 1,000 litres.

This can be adjusted based on individual results. Note: Biostim Liquid can be dosed at higher rates when required but care should be taken to ensure adequate aeration in fish ponds.
