OASE Lake Therapy Beneficial Bacteria Block 8 lb

The OASE Lake Therapy 8 lb Beneficial Bacteria Block delivers time-released beneficial bacteria into lakes and ponds to maintain biological balance, enhance dissolved oxygen, reduce ammonia and nitrite, and digest organic sediment.

What It Treats

• Noxious odors from hydrogen sulfide, decomposing plants, and fish waste
• Elevated ammonia and nitrogen levels

• Accumulated organic matter on the pond or lake bottom

How To Apply

• Place the block directly into the water or suspend it from a dock or floating fountain
• Treatment zone: one 8 lb block per 8 acre-feet (2.6 million gallons)
• Initial application, then reapply after 30 days, and every 60 days thereafter
• Bacteria remain effective across a wide pH and water-temperature range
