What happens to pond water after it has been treated with Blixitt?
Our pond product is designed to help the pond to rejuvenate itself and to stay healthy. When applied, our pond product oxygenates the water, neutralizes pH levels, and applies aerobic bacteria with nutrients to enable the aerobic breakdown of pond waste (dead plants, decaying matter, etc.). We also apply ground-up barley straw to inhibit the reproduction of algae. So, after treatment, the pond water should be clearer and odor free.In regards to drinkability, we do not recommend drinking any water from a natural source since it most likely contains parasites. Q) What is the difference between aerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria? A) Aerobic bacteria uses oxygen to thrive while anaerobic bacteria cannot survive in an environment saturated with oxygen. Q) What role do the bacteria have in eliminating odors? A) Anaerobic decomposition (without oxygen) is a main cause of noxious odors. Anaerobes cause odors by producing Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), a colorless gas that smells like rotten eggs
