Kusuri Eco-Pure

Kusuri Eco-Pure

Inhibits blanket weed, flocculates particle matter, increases water clarity, degrades sludge.
Since we launched this product last year the response has been overwhelming!

Eco-Pure is a biological product that has beneficial strains of denitrifying bacteria bio-fixed to a dense powder catalyst.

Eco-Pure is non chemical and is 100% fish safe. The powder gives additional benefits of flocculating particle matter in suspension and increases water clarity.

Eco-Pure works down to a water temperature of 6c The problem with blanket weed is that once it starts to grow it is like garden weeds It keeps coming back! If you use detrimental chemicals to eradicate it, inevitably it returns!

The best way to tackle the weed is to reduce its food sources so natural die back can take place, and further growth is stifled. Eco-pure is designed to be added to the pond regularly to keep the growth low.

Eco Boost Sachet

Eco Boost Sachet

Eco Boost sachets are each rated up to ponds of 5000 gallons. The bacterial sachet provides a stronger formula but only works above 12 C. It is suitable for summer use and heated ponds. Use once a month, or as required, to rapidly reduce the dreaded weed. Eco Boost can be used at the same time as Eco Pure, or alone. Dissolve sachet into a bucket of pond water then add to pond. Switch UV off for 5 days, as this forms a liquid solution.

Eco-pure is designed to be added to the pond regularly to keep the growth low. With Eco-Pure it is possible to reduce growth down and to maintain the level at about 10 mm. Blanket weed can grow very fast it draws its nutrients from the water in the form of Nitrates & phosphates and is accelerated by sunlight and oxygen. The bad news for us is that fish actually excrete phosphate and our filters produce Nitrates at end of the nitrifying cycle. In an enclosed pond the levels of  both naturally increase over time and before you know it, you can be harvesting blanket weed weekly! Changing water can be fruitless as most public water supplies contain Nitrates & Phosphates that will only add to the problem. Eco-Pure added weekly will reduce blanket weed by reducing its food source. Bacteria coat the blanket weed starving the weed of food, this will initially break up long strands as it looses strength. After regular use it should  reduce down to minimal growth. Every pond is different! In some ponds Eco-Pure can work in 2 weeks, most ponds can take 4 - 8 weeks. Use Eco-Pure early in the season do not wait for it to grow in other words use it in a regular preventive approach.            

Dosage: use cup supplied in container, add 1or 2 heaped cups (30 -50 grams approx) per 1000 gallons of pond water, mix measured quantity into a bucket of pond water Stir, then apply around edge of  pond area, every week. Ensure all powder and granules are added to pond. The pond will go cloudy for only a few hours some particles may settle on the bottom of the pond, this is normal and will dissipate in time. For bad areas of blanket weed growth the dry powder can be directly applied to side walls allowing the powder to entangle into the blanket weed growth. Do not expect instant results. Eco-pure works by bacterial & enzyme action and will be dependent on temperature pH factors etc.  Note: You cannot over dose with Eco-Pure it can be used 3 or 4 times a week if required for bad weed problems. Because the beneficial bacteria is bio–fixed to the nutrient powder there is no need to turn any UV equipment off. Use as little or as much as you like, let the growth dictate your dosage.
