ActiveX Activex is for the colonisation of filtration bacteria and differs from similar filter products as it contains a gel, which creates a retention substrate in the filter for the bacteria to multiply on more quickly and effectively. The gel substrate is harmless and feeds the bacteria. Introduce 10 ml of Activex per cubic foot of biological filter. There is no need to measure the filter system precisely and you need only feed the product into the biological part of the filter not the mechanical area. In a mature pond use Activex occasionally to boost the filter performance particularly after any chemicals have been used which may affect the biology in the filter, or after heavy feeding during Summer. In a new pond allow a few days between each application of Activex as the filter establishes and test water frequently throughout the colonisation process first for ammonia and then for nitrite. The frequency for applications does not matter, every three days if you have a major problem establishing the filter with high readings, or if you are coping follow the directions on the bottle which are only a guide, with a natural product there are many ways to use it successfully.
   
 
   
 
Combat Bactericide Combat Bactericide combines several antimicrobial agents and a fungicide. For minor bacterial problems, raised scales and to lower protozoan parasites that commonly cause a white film treat the pond 1-2 times depending on the severity at seven-day intervals. For gill fluke treat the pond 3 times at four-day intervals. Combat minimally affects filter bacteria.
   
 
   
 
Envirex Envirex was exhaustively researched during its 10-year development; many government agencies took part in the research and use the product today to control many potential problems in ponds lakes and natural waters. Envirex is a totally natural product that degrades both solids and dissolved solids at the same time lowering ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and phosphate and other unwanted substances in pond water. The result is a more hygienic pond in which disease is less likely to develop. Being a totally natural product Envirex cannot kill blanketweed or algae but can inhibit their growth due to its influence on the cause of algal growths and blooms. The benefits of Envirex are found with regular use and it can prove very economical as users are advised to customise the dose level to their own needs. The amount required is directly related to the volume of fish stocked not the gallonage of the pond, that is why there is no accurate dose level it will vary pond to pond. Envirex is available in 400 grams or 2 kg tubs. To start off the system use 80 grams per 1000 gallons in a new pond and 40 grams per 1000 gallons in a mature pond and allow a week for settlement. In the average pond with a low stocking density approximately 5 grams per 1000 gallons every 5-7 days usually controls unwanted substances and solids. When serious water quality problems are experienced with high ammonia or nitrite readings increased doses of Envirex can be used possibly 15 grams per 1000 gallons would be an average dose in this situation. These are guidelines only and can be adapted to individual needs as Envirex is harmless and totally natural. When Envirex is used all year round the start up dose will only be needed once at the outset. If using Envirex regularly during the Summer but stopping use during Winter the mature pond dose needs to be introduced every Spring. There is no need to switch off ultra violet sterilisers when using Envirex, and the product does not interfere with any pond medication or filtration additive.
   
 
   
 
Reminex Plus Reminex Plus - The mineral content of water is vital to the fish that live in it. Rainfall, water purifiers, ultra violet sterilisers and even the passage of time will all lower the natural mineral level. Fish cannot obtain every mineral they need from their diet they have to take these in from the water they live in. Reminex replaces these essential minerals, improves the coloration, as well as adding to the skin quality and putting sparkle into the pond water. Based on montmorillionite clay Reminex and Reminex plus contain a tonic that the fish enjoy and find stimulating. Reminex can be can be used directly in the pond, or in a concentrated bath, or mixed with feed. The Reminex tub provides some guidelines for use and indicates a maximum dose level of 300 grams per 1000 gallons. This will cause clouding just like the clay ponds in Japan and is recommended off-season in Spring and Autumn when Koi-keepers are not spending time at the pond. This high dose will improve the condition of fish that have just wintered or about to do so and improves the intensity of the colour of Koi. To simply boost the mineral level of the pond the hobbyist can determine a dose level - 50 grams per 1000 will add some minerals 10-20 grams per 1000 will help to put a sparkle into the water. 4 grams in 25 gallons should be sufficient for a bath and Koi can be left in this for as long as oxygen levels and water quality permit. To feed Reminex soak 250 grams of pellets in 7 grams of Reminex which has been dissolved in a little water or orange juice. Feed immediately as drying the feed could lower the mineral content. Like all natural products the user can customise Reminex. There is no conflict between Reminex and pond medications and no need to switch off the UV during use.
   
  Use reminex in ponds of poor water quality as it has a higher ionic exchange capacity reminex plus is suited to all normal ponds
   
 
   
 
Paradex Paradex - Is used to control the larger parasites such as lice, leeches and anchor worm seen by the naked eye. To avoid subjecting chemicals it is advised that the pond is retreated each time juvenile lice or leeches are seen rather than at a particular frequency. Only the adult remale anchor worm is visible, and this has to be removed with tweezers and the body treated with Koi Cream (found in the First Aid Kit) before the pond is treated.
   
 
   
 
Bio Dips Bio-Dips - Is used to assess the bacterial level in pond water. TWO units are supplied so when a high level of bacteria is suspected a bio-dip can be taken before and after the use of a bactericide to ascertain how effective the treatment has been.
