It improves the clarity of water and reduces unpleasant odours within days of treatment. Green Lightning comes in a powder consisting of freeze dried bacteria set on cereal food. (bran) This “natural” method includes the use of safe (non-pathogenic) bacteria. It contains strains belonging the Bacillus genus and includes both aerobic and facultatively anaerobic strains. These bacteria actively remove nutrients required by the main filamentous algae in the pond such as Spirogyra, Cladophera, Rhizoclonium,Vaucheria and Ulothrix for any excessive waste derivates such as fat, oil and grease, proteins, sugars, starch and cellulose. They also consume Nitrates, dissolved Ammonia and Phosphates. The bacteria remove theses very basic components required by Blanket Weed and the water becomes clearer. Any unpleasant odour is generally removed too. These “good” bacteria do not however have an effect direct effect on single cell algae and blue-green algae such as Microcystis. Microcystis Aerugynosa is a member of the Cyanobacteria and can produce harmful toxins to both fish and land animals. Fortunately in ornamental ponds an Ultraviolet Light can kill these single cell algae. An environmentally efficient algae treatment in static and slow moving water. The tried and tested answer to the removal and prevention of Blanket Weed. 450g water soluble bag treats up to 20,000 gallons and can be used to treat smaller ponds.
