Tetra Pond Filter Start Bacteria

Tetra Pond Filter Start Bacteria

Tetra Pond Filter Start kickstarts the biological function of your pond filter after winter or when you’re setting up a new pond. Plus, it helps extend the time between cleanings.

The living filter bacteria in the product help reduce harmful pollutants like ammonium and nitrite in the water. Special cleaning bacteria break down organic matter in the filter, such as fish waste and fallen leaves in the pond. These natural processes prevent decay and are key to keeping a healthy biological balance. Along with improving water quality, the product also extends the life of the pond filter, making cleaning less frequent.

Filter Start works purely through natural processes, helping your pond filter get back to full performance in just a few days—perfect after cleaning, restarting at the start of pond season in spring, or following medical treatments. For best results, give it a good shake before use and follow the instructions carefully.
The included dosing cap makes measuring quick and easy.

Fill the dosing cap and pour in 100 ml for every 1,000 liters of pond water.
Mix the liquid with pond water in a container, then gently pour the mixture over your filter media.
This cannot be overdosed.
Tetra suggests waiting about an hour before turning the filter back on.
