POND-VIVE The natural, biological way to revive your pond!	Our special blend of bacteria is designed to: Reduce sludge buildup Improve water clarity Eliminate excess nutrients Eliminate pond odors Reduce oxygen demand

Pond-Vive is a proprietary blend of specialized bacteria, formulated specifically for the task of lake and pond maintenance. Pond-Vive contains specialized bacterial strains as well as other necessary ingredients needed to support these bacterial strains in lake or pond setting. Our unique blend of bacteria accomplishes a number of very specific tasks. Certain bacterial strains specialize in the removing of excess ammonia, nitrates and phosphorus from the water. These excess nutrients, if not removed, can stimulate nuisance aquatic growth. Other strains focus on clarifying the murky water caused from animal and plant wastes, while simultaneously reducing or eliminating the odors stemming from those wastes. Still other strains target the reduction of sludge on the bottom of lakes and ponds.  Pond-Vive bacteria should only be used when the water temperature is above 55°.

We have thousands of satisfied customers who have seen a definite improvement in water quality using Pond-Vive!
"I purchased a pail of Pond-Vive from a local supplier to help clear up my pond before my grandkids came to visit. After using Pond-Vive just three weeks the pond issues were gone and the swimming was great." - Paul K., Hampton, NY

"Pond-Vive is great stuff!" - Jim K., Spring Valley Trout Farm, Dexter, MI

Safe for fish, pets, wildlife and family!
The use of beneficial pond bacteria has proven to be one of the best tools a pond owner can use to maintain a healthy pond.  These beneficial bacteria are like mini vacuum cleaners working along the pond's bottom to consume and digest organic materials such as: decayed leaves, grass clippings, dead algae, weeds, fish waste etc.  Left in the pond, these organic materials act as a stimulant for future water quality problems.

The use of chemicals can provide quick results, but are a band-aid to the problem.  The use of bacteria gets to the root of the problem and provides a long term solution!

Most all ponds contain natural bacteria.  The problem is that these are usually Anaerobic bacteria (meaning they do not need oxygen to survive) and they digest muck very slow.  Pond-Vive bacteria contains Aerobic bacteria (which requires oxygen to survive) and they decompose muck at a much faster rate.  The use of an aeration system in deeper ponds is strongly recommended to ensure adequate levels of oxygen.  The beneficial bacteria in Pond-Vive is completely safe for swimming, fish, pets and wildlife!

Pond-Vive is approved by the Michigan DEQ for use in public waters.  This includes private ponds which discharge water into public streams, water ways, etc.  Using an unapproved bacteria can result in large fines!  A Rule 97 Certificate is required from the DEQ prior to using in public waters in Michigan.  Contact us for assistance if needed.

Pond-Vive can be purchased in two ways:

Eight ounce Water Soluble Packets - Premeasured, simply toss into pond, water soluble bag dissolves in seconds and releases the bacteria

Bulk Pails - 10, 25 and 100 pound bulk pails are the most cost effective way to buy!

* Formulated for use in earth bottom ponds. For water garden applications check out our EasyPro bacteria. 

SLUDGE REMOVER PELLETS          NEW LOWER PRICE!

This products is a slightly modified version of the Pond-Vive above.  While the Pond-Vive is designed to target several problem areas of water quality, these pellets are specifically designed to reduce sludge.

Each one ounce pellet covers approximately 200 - 250 square feet of shoreline or beach area.  Apply every two weeks.

  • Great for spot treating around docks, beaches or partially treating large ponds
  • Pellets are heavy and sink down into muck directly where they are applied
  • Best used in conjunction with Pond-Vive (above) for a complete water quality program

SUPER CONCENTRATED WATER CLARIFIER

• Helps clear murky, turbid water by attracting suspended particles together, settling them to the bottom

• Works great when used with Pond-Vive, the clarifier settles the problem particles to the bottom where they are consumed by the Pond-Vive.

• One gallon treats 250,000 gallons of pond water, ponds with high levels of suspended solids can be treated at double dosage or a second application.

• For best results mix recommended amount with pond water and spray evenly over pond surface.
