What causes algae blooms and how does BZT® Aquaculture help?
Algae are mainly caused by excess nutrients in the water. Most ponds and lakes become overloaded with nutrients, nitrogen, phosphorus and organic carbon. These excess nutrients overcome the pond’s ability to naturally clean itself up. This upset of nature’s balance creates an environment for poor water quality and clarity. BZT® Aquaculture’s microorganisms use nutrients in their cell mass and breakdown organic substances and greatly improve water quality and reduce bottom solids.
