What is the interaction with MICROBE-LIFT products and outside products, such as Algae Fix®?

0

It is unlikely that AlgaeFix ® would “sterilize” the pond, i.e. kill 100% of the organisms but it can knock out a large portion of them depending on the dosage. In general, if MICROBE-LIFT is being used as direc ted, it will maintain a healthy pond system, but when other chemical interventions, such as algaecides, are used, you will need to wait at least 3 days before applying MICROBE-LIFT to the pond in order for the algaecide to dissipate sufficiently to allow the bacteria to grow. Other algaecides could kill off sufficient quantities of the bacteria and in certain cases, can eliminate all the built up bacteria in the pond. Following that you would need to start with a purge dosage and begin anew to develop the biological ecology and balance of the pond.
