Aquazoi Pond Filter Boost

Aquazoi Pond Filter Boost

Aquazoi Pond Filter Boost is an environmentally friendly bacteria boost treatment that makes pond filtration systems work more effectively and helps improve water quality in ponds, water features, dams and wetlands. Marketed as FILTERBOOST, it is formulated for South African conditions. It suits koi and goldfish keepers, water-feature owners and anyone managing a dam or wetland who wants a stronger, more stable biological filter.

A pond filter is only as good as the beneficial bacteria living in its media. Those colonies are lost every time you backwash the filter or change water, and a brand-new filter starts with almost none. Aquazoi Pond Filter Boost adds good bacteria to the system so your bio-filter can recover faster and do its job properly. It remains effective in water temperatures under 12°C, which makes it useful through cooler Highveld and Cape winters as well as in the warmer months.

Key Benefits

• Increases the population of good bacteria in your pond system.
• Makes all types of bio-filter systems more effective.
• Helps seed new filter systems so they establish their biological capacity.
• Replaces good bacteria lost through backwashing or water changes.
• Helps keep pathogens down by making the filter system more effective.
• Safe for humans, pets, wildlife and plants.
• 100% environmentally friendly, so it suits natural ponds, dams and wetlands as well as ornamental features.
• Formulated for South African conditions and effective in water temperatures under 12°C.

How to Use

• Add FILTERBOOST directly to the pond water or straight into the filter. You do not need to dilute it first.
• Dose after every water change or filter backwash to restore the good bacteria lost in the process.
• Use it as part of your monthly maintenance routine to reduce the excess growth of harmful pathogens.
• Dose at the beginning of the warmer season. This gives any pond system a strong advantage as biological activity and fish feeding increase.
• New ponds: space doses 5 to 7 days apart.
• Important: if any other treatment has been used within the previous 7 to 14 days, DO NOT DOSE with FILTERBOOST before consulting your distributor.
