| Features: Slowly raises the pH of pond water (making it more alkaline) without harming delicate pond fish or aquatic plants. Slowly neutralizes acid substances that cause low pH (pH of pond water is affected by mineral leaching, soil runoff & decomposing waste). A low pH can stress pond fish & suppress the activity of the biological filter. Contains no algae-promoting phosphates.
Product Description: Pond Care pH Up will increase the pH in garden ponds by neutralizing excess acid. This product can be used daily to adjust pH until conditions stabilize. pH Up contains no algae-promoting phosphates. It is important to accurately measure the level of pH in a pond before initiating adjustments. Use a Pond Care pH Test Kit to measure your pH weekly. pH should be either raised or lowered by no more than 0.5 units every 24 hours. Do not treat pond water more than once every 24 hours. Plants and algae cause a temporary increase in pH in the afternoon. Therefore, pH should be tested in the early morning to obtain the most accurate reading.
Direction for use: Carefully mix desired dose with 2 U.S. gallons of pond water in a plastic bucket and distribute evenly around the perimeter of the pond.
1. Test the pH of the pond water with a Pond Care Liquid Wide Range pH Test Kit. 2. Add 2 teaspoonfuls for every 50 U.S. gallons (189 L) of pond water 3. Wait 24 hours, then test pH. Repeat treatment as necessary. 16oz (473 ml) bottle. Treats 2,400 U.S. gallons (9,084 L) |
