Evolution Aqua Pure Pond Bomb – for Crystal Clear Healthy Water, Treats up to 20,000 litres

This is an amazing product and I am so happy to give a 5 star review of this pond bomb..:- In the Spring some ducks came to our pond (first time in three years) and churned up the bottom silt and decaying organic matter causing the water to become like black tea! (I scooped out a glass of water to examine it).. I spent several days shooing the ducks away.. They are lovely to look at but cause a lot of mess and damage in a small pond and also two of the baby fish died as their scales had been damaged.. I know the river and canal is not far from us so I knew the ducks would have better feeding areas there..But even more alarming was the fact that my 30+ assorted size goldfish then hid well away and wouldn't come out to feed for weeks and weeks on end. At first I thought they were just spooked by the ducks disturbing their habitat, but after seeing the horrible brown coloured water I realised they were shutting themselves down naturally to protect themselves from the ammonia and nitrates etc..Our pond was inherited by us when we moved into our rented house. It is well established, probably decades old.. It looks as though there may have been a pump and a waterfall but these had long ago stopped working, and there is no longer an electricity source to the pond.. There is a lot of decaying matter at the bottom which I do not clean out but prefer to leave the natural ecology of the pond to do its thing and the fact that we have an abundance of wildlife in and around it , I prefer to leave well alone. Usually the pond is a bit green from the suspended algae but apparently this is not harmful to the Fish, frogs, newts etc.. (also I read that baby fish feed on it)..I also read that it's a good idea to aerate the water, which has a lot of ammonia and nitrates in it, if it has turned brown.. I bought two solar fountains and underwater stones to oxygenate the water.. I always give things a good few weeks to see if there are any improvements.. There was no difference in the water clarity but these have added nice features to the pond!.. The water was still dark brown and murky and the fish were still hibernating even though it was late Spring by now..I read the reviews and product information about the bacteria in these bombs that break down the ammonia etc..I thought I'd give them a try.. I put one bomb in around the 3rd week of May..After a few weeks my fish gradually started to appear again and looked swimmingly alert and ready to feed again...I could see the dozen large fish and a couple of the babies.. I was so pleased to see them re-emerge.. The visibility was getting better too.. So I knew something really good was happening.. I put another bomb in a couple of weeks ago.. Now all the fish including 10-12 babies are perky and healthy, feeding and enjoying life again..Yesterday I did the water glass test and the water is no longer brown at all!.. I am so pleased. There is just a slight green tinge.. I occasionally use an anti-algae product but I don't want the water to look absolutely clear as I prefer it to look natural.. I always use a water conditioner if I'm topping up the pond with tap water in the summer to remove chlorine etc.. Also this year I have let the lilly pads cover 2/3rds at least of the pond as it is in the sun all day (well when the British summer permits!) and this also helps to discourage suspended algae..All I would say is be very patient.. Give these things a good few weeks to get going and you will see good results. Also lastly but most importantly many many thanks to Evolution Aqua Pure for creating this brilliant product.. I would highly recommend this to all pond owners.

Worked wonder will be purchasing again

Don't know what it should do haven't seen any change

I’ve been using this for a few years now as part of my annual springtime pond maintenance. Every spring, my pond water gets a bit murky, and no matter how much I clean the filters, it just doesn't clear up.I drop one of these in and it does exactly what it says on the tin. The good bacteria eats up all the waste and clears the water up beautifully. It takes all the hard work out of it. If your pond needs a bit of TLC, just drop it in and let it do its thing. Fabulous product

I have put in a new pond, and noticed it getting abit dirty so I brought this product. Thinking it was going to clear the water. The water looks clear running into the pond but has not cleared the pond so I will have to empty it

Excellent stuff, added to pond and within 24 hours it was clear once more. Very effective.

I have now tried 3 of these in my 6 x 6 x 2 ft deep pond. I used one a week. Over 3 week period that was a month ago. There has been no difference in the suspended green/brown Algae and the Algae clinging to the sides is just as thick, I have Water Lillie's in Flower, Water Hythcent, and Oxygenating plants. I have wasted my money I still can't see my fish unless they break the surface to feed.

Could see a difference in the water quality in 24 hours

Hat bei mir sehr gut funktioniert, dauert nur ein paar Tage

Lo utilizzo tutti gli anni per trattare l'acqua del laghetto di inizio stagione, prodotto veramente eccellente anche se il prezzo pagato è un po' Altino, spedizione abbastanza veloce.

Didn’t work in our pond

I didn't have great expectations for this, as most pond products work very slowly if ever. This product however works within a couple of days, absolutely clearing up the pond. Not great at clearing muck at the bottom, but the water clarity is some of the best I've seen in my 4 years of having a Koi pond.
