DefensePAC™

Oxy-Lift™ Defense™ is not temperature sensitive and may be used whenever debris accumulates on rocks, gravel, waterfalls or streams.

Nature’s Defense™ is used throughout the Spring, Summer & Fall when water temperatures are above 50°F. Apply every two weeks.

Use Clarity Defense™ with your first application of Nature’s Defense™ and continue weekly thereafter. Clarity Defense™ is not temperature sensitive and may be used anytime water becomes cloudy or murky.

Muck Defense™ is used throughout the Spring, Summer & Fall when water temperatures are above 50°F. Apply every four weeks.

Turn off pump(s) and filtration system(s) – sprinkle Oxy-Lift™ Defense™ over affected area. Wait 15 to 20 minutes before turning your system back on.

Apply water soluble packets directly to water (do not open). For best results, remove excess debris or use Oxy-Lift™ 24 hours before treatment.

Powder may be applied directly to the water or dissolved in a container of pond water. Pour evenly over the pond’s surface.

Pond CleanerUse to simply “lift” debris from waterfalls, streams, rocks and/or anywhere debris accumulates. Great for ponds with fish & plants.

Pond BalanceNature’s Defense™ naturally improves water clarity by attacking nutrients and suspended organic waste.

Pond ClarifierReduces the need for water changes, locks up excess nutrients, buffers pH, stimulates bacteria growth, removes suspended par-ticulates and makes regular maintenance a breeze.

Muck ReducerAccelerates the decomposition of organic matter caused from fish waste, dead leaves and dead algae. A must for ponds with rocks and gravel that are difficult to vacuum.

Seasonal Defense™ works best when applied in late Autumn and early Spring or when water temperatures are below 50°F. Apply weekly. In areas where ice occurs, treatments may be discontinued while your pond is frozen over.

Apply water soluble packets directly to water (do not open). For best results, remove excess debris or use Oxy-Lift™ 24 hours before treatment.

Autumn, Winter &Spring PrepAccelerates the decomposition of leaves, scum, and sedi-ment that builds up during the fall and winter months. In the spring, it replenishes winter bacteria loss, jump starts the filter and breaks down unwanted waste.

There are 4 key factors in maintaining a clean, clear and healthy pond ecosystem.

1. the DefensePAC™:The products included in the DefensePAC™ provides beneficial bacteria, trace minerals, and a fish and plant safe pond cleaner. These are essential to maintain a clean, clear and healthy ecosystem.

2. fish Load:When calculating your fish load think of it in pounds of fish or total inches. For example, one 6” fish can weigh as much as four 4” fish. The number of fish will affect the overall fish load, although 10 small fish may only produce the waste of one large fish. With this said, remember that your fish are growing and in many cases multiplying. Always plan for the future and be careful not to overstock your pond.

3. Proper filtration:The size and type of your filtration system will depend on your total fish load. If your filter is not properly sized for max potential, your fish will outgrow the filter. In most cases filters on the market are rated for ponds containing no fish or a minimal fish load. It is always best to get a filter that is rated for at least 2x the water volume of your pond.

4. Aquatic Plants:A simple rule of thumb is to have 60% plant coverage. This should consist of submerged, floating and marginal plants. Floating plants, such as Water Hyacinths, pull their nutrients directly from the water. Rooted plants, such as water lilies and marginal plants, create a great place for your fish to hide from predators. Please note when aquatic plants are not present, algae will take their place.

uSefuL fORMuLAS:• Pond Size: Lendth x Width = Square Feet• Gallons of Water: Square Feet x Average Depth x 7.48 = Gallons of Water Note: Average Depth = MAX Depth / 2• Proper Pump Size for Waterfalls: Width of Waterfall (in feet) x 1500 GPH (gallons per hour) @ feet of head. Note: Head is calculated by measuring how many feet the water will drop drom the top of the waterfall to the water’s surface. Also, add one foot of head for every 10’ tubing.
