Diatomix IV is a highly concentrated bacteria booster for large ponds and dams, containing specially formulated mix of Silica and 10 vital nutrients for Diatoms to grow and replicate.

Diatoms are microscopic living organisms that live in water and need regular nourishment to survive. They are at the beginning of the food chain and provide food for larger organisms that also exist in the ecosystem.
In healthy, well established ponds and dams there may be enough nutrient for Diatoms to thrive however sometimes they need a headstart and some help.
How it works
Diatoms take up the nitrogen and phosphorus that cause the problems in your pond, starving out the problem algae and weeds, restoring a healthy water balance.
Diatomix provides the necessary minerals and vitamins to supercharge good bacterial growth in a pond, combating sludge and sediment, germs and poor water health.

Calculate your pond volume
L x W x Ave. Depth (m) x 1000 = Litres

For ponds up to 100,000 litres, use 15ml-20ml once per week.

To ensure better coverage in your pond it is best to mix the recommended dose of Diatomix in a container or bucket with around 5 litres of existing pond water then mix it into your pond at different points, avoid getting it on top of weeds as it needs to be in the pond water.

Give the bottle a really good shake prior to use.

We recommend smaller, more frequent doses to ensure the bacteria have a steady constant supply of essential nutrients.

Always follow the dosing instructions on the packaging.
