Nitrifying beneficial pond bacteria is a critical component to all biological pond filters. Without nitrifying beneficial pond bacteria, a biological filter is not “biological”. A biological filter is essential for maintaining a healthy ecosystem to support fish and other aquatic life. Fish and aquatic life release ammonia into the water that is toxic to the fish. Without beneficial bacteria inside a biological fish pond filter, the water will become unhealthy for your koi and pond fish.

The nitrification cycle is the conversion of ammonia to nitrite, and then nitrite to nitrate with specific bacteria. Nitrification Cycle™ Nitrifying Pond Bacteria contains those specific bacteria critical for the nitrification cycle in biological fish pond filters.

HydroClear™ Nitrification Cycle™ beneficial pond bacteria reduces ammonia, fish waste, organic plant material, sludge, and excess nutrients in your pond. High concentration for optimum results.

The nitrogen cycle is the biochemical cycle by which nitrogen is converted into multiple chemical forms as it circulates through aquatic ecosystems. The conversion of ammonia to nitrite, and nitrite to nitrogen is carried out through the biological filters' process.
