Water Treatments  

Improve the appearance and long-term health of your water feature with safe water treatments, designed to remove harmful substances that threaten aquatic life. The list of water-related issues is extensive, from the growth of stubborn algae to the accumulation of sludge on the bottom of your waterbody.  

Investing in some high-quality treatments from Love My Dam can restore your dam, lake or pond in no time. 

Browse our selection of water treatments above to see what solution is right for your water feature.  

Water Treatment Solutions for Various Water Issues 

Water treatments act like the good microbes in your gut. These treatments use bacterial culture enzymes to remove harmful bacteria and restore balance in your water, reducing the appearance of algae, weeds and sludge.  

Here are some of the water problems our products help resolve:  

Algae control   

Algae growth in water bodies can disrupt ecosystems and aesthetics. The murky green mess is unpleasant to look at, making products such as the Algae Lift more beneficial. This peroxide-based water treatment peels algae from aquatic surfaces allowing natural processes to break the algae down faster.

We also have products like Biostim Liquid and Biostim Accelerator which speed up these natural degradation processes.   

Weed management  

The treatment of water weeds comes from manual tools, aeration, probiotics and herbicides. We have various tools that can clear the water’s surface, including the DeSkuzzer, our most popular instrument for manually clearing floating aquatic weeds by scooping them up. Our Aquatic Weed Cutter cuts emergent weeds from their base using a sharp head. 

You can also use probiotics like Biostim Pellets, Biostim Tablets, Biostim Powder or Biostim Liquid to increase populations of good bacteria in your dam. These “good” guys consume nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, making less food available for weeds. Over time, this starves weeds out.  

In extreme cases, using the WaterTreats Aquatic Weed Killer alongside these manual tools will quickly kill the weeds. If you do use herbicide, we highly recommend using the chemical in combination with Biostim Accelerator, a natural biocatalyst, which reduces how much herbicide you need to use.  

Sludge removal  

Sludge is a frustrating substance derived from organic matter like dead microorganisms and organic debris.  

Our Biostim range can increase the good bacteria in your water that helps fight against sludge. The Biostim Pellets are a natural biological stimulant that balances the natural ecosystem to prevent high nutrient levels from causing excessive sludge. Biostim Tablets work the same, they are just a bit more potent than the pellets. The pellets and tablets settle on the floor of your dam and break down over time, spiking the populations of good bacteria in the sludge itself. These bacteria literally eat the sludge, breaking it down over time. Sometimes in just a few days.  

Clearing muddy water  

Muddy water can make your water feature look unappealing. Using a flocculant product like the Clearwater Flocculant can help clear muddiness from water. By introducing an opposing ionic charge to the suspended inorganic particles like sand and soil, the suspended material clumps together and sinks to the bottom. 

Eliminating odour 

Odour can stem from “bad” (anaerobic) bacteria growth that creates odour-causing compounds. The Dazzel Eco Plus is a great solution for neutralising water odour and breaking down bacteria that cause bad smells. We also have Nitrifying Bacteria, designed to reduce ammonia levels while boosting the growth of healthy bacteria.  

Wastewater treatment  

Wastewater treatment comes in the form of liquid degraders and rope blocks. Our Bug On A Rope is a natural grease degrader that contains bacteria to break down fats, oils and greases in your water feature.  

We also stock the Foam Buster, another wastewater-reducing agent that encourages the growth of naturally occurring bacteria to restore your water body.  

Other Products for Healthy Water  

Love My Dam also stocks other products that can improve your water quality and protect it from harmful substances in the long term. Check them out below.   

Probiotics  

Probiotic water treatments add populations of “good” healthy microorganisms to your water, ensuring it doesn’t exceed high nutrient levels, which feeds pests like algae and aquatic weeds.

These probiotics come in various forms such as: 

Eco-dyes  

Eco-dyes can enhance the aesthetics of your water feature by creating a reflective surface and reducing UV penetration, which slows the growth of underwater algae and weeds To make your water look appealing, choose a Black Dam Eco-Dye to transform a dull-looking water feature into a beautiful reflection pond.
