Less algae & better water
in 3 simple steps
Mix
Mix the ingredients of the package in a larger container with pond water. Wait briefly.
Apply
Apply the mixture on the water surface, with increased focus on the shallow shore area.
Wait
Zeolite and microorganisms do their work. The milky gray water clears up within a few days.
Stability
for your pond
This is what probiotic pond care with the Natural Pond Care Set achieves.
The regular "treatment" of a natural pond or biotope with regenerative microorganisms strengthens the probiotic microbiology and biodiversity in the pond.
Plants and animals that thrive on imbalance, nutrient overabundance, and decay (e.g., algae and many pathogenic bacteria species) do not find favorable living conditions in a balanced ecosystem and are displaced by other species.
Effects in your pond
- Reduced algae load
- Improved visibility depth, green tint fades
- Less slimy surfaces on stones, steps, etc.
- Improved smell, taste, and enhanced water quality
- Greater plant and animal biodiversity in and around the pond (the pond "comes to life")
- Stabilizes the pH value in the neutral range
- 100% organic – supports natural cycles
How it works
The probiotic pond treatment with the Pond Care Set works through a dual effect: The ultra-fine zeolite removes excess nutrients from the water in a short time, immediately inhibiting algae growth.
The probiotic microorganisms promote high biological diversity in the pond. They suppress decay and revitalize pond biology. In symbiosis with aquatic plants, they metabolize available nutrients.
Algae thrive on an excess of nutrients, which is drastically reduced by the pond treatment. They are starved, turn brown-yellow, and either sink to the bottom or float on the surface, where they can be easily skimmed off.
As a result, pond plants (not algae) grow noticeably better, and the diversity of aquatic life increases significantly. As long as this biodiversity is maintained, the pond remains stable. The probiotic pond treatment mimics natural, self-sustaining processes: ecological balance and closed nutrient cycles through an ever-expanding, maximized biodiversity.
This is how your pond stays stable
Building bacterial diversity in an ecosystem can often be long and arduous, as it is fragile and easily disrupted.
Therefore, it makes sense to avoid actions that endanger biodiversity: No pesticides in the garden, no algaecides in the pond, no sunscreen in the water, no excessive or inappropriate fish stocking…
Good for biodiversity and a stable pond are:
- Plant nutrient-consuming aquatic plants
- Vacuum sludge & debris
- Limit fish stocking and the amount of fish feed
- Remove leaves & plant debris
- Avoid fertilizer input
- Ensure moderate water circulation (= oxygen enrichment)
- If possible: Shade the pond, create multiple temperature zones (minimum depth)
- Regular support of the ecosystem through probiotic pond treatment

- Harmful germ suppression – Reduces disease-causing bacteria
- Water purification – Prevents rot and cloudiness
- Gleichgewicht & Stabilität – Fördert ein gesundes Ökosystem
Rhodopseudomonas bacteria
Improves water quality
- Ammonium breakdown – Reduces pollutants in the water
- Breaks down organics – Prevents rot & toxic gas formation
- pH stabilization – Keeps water values in balance
Ultrafinely ground natural zeolite
Mineral nutrient binding
- Nutrient binding – Removes excess nutrients from the water
- Algae control – Deprives algae of their basis for growth
- Clear water – Improves visibility depth sustainably
Natural Pond Care works with the power of nature: beneficial microorganisms and ultra-finely ground volcanic rock zeolite work together to improve water quality.
The diverse microbiology in the pond breaks down organic waste and excess nutrients, prevents rot, and keeps harmful germs in check. Special Rhodopseudomonas bacteria reduce toxic substances (such as ammonium) and stabilize important water parameters, leading to clear, healthy water. At the same time, the fine natural zeolite remains suspended in the water for a while, binding free nutrients and thereby depriving algae of their basis for growth, inhibiting their development.
The result: a natural, stable pond with clear water and a vibrant ecosystem – without the use of chemicals.
What distinguishes probiotic pond care from other methods of algae reduction?
The probiotic method is characterized by combining addressing root causes and working close to nature. In contrast to chemical or purely mechanical approaches, the ecological balance is supported, leading to long-term stabilization, algae reduction and better water quality. Although this less aggressive method requires a little more time and a reliable routine, you gain a stable, healthy pond practically in harmony with nature.
Alternative, commonly used methods (netting, algaecides, UV clarification) can provide short-term relief, but sometimes have clear disadvantages – whether high effort, risks for the pond environment, or lack of long-term effectiveness. With probiotic pond care using the Natural Pond Care Set, you rely on a well-founded, sustainable solution for fewer algae and clearer water.
Probiotic | Manual | Chemical | UV-C clarifier |
|---|---|---|---|
Biological: Beneficial bacteria & zeolite bind nutrients and promote natural balance. | Manual/Mechanical: Algae are collected or removed by hand. | Chemical: Algaecides (biocides) in the water kill algae cells. | Physical: UV light in the filter kills suspended algae and germs as the water flows through. |
Advantages: Natural and sustainable (addresses root causes); strengthens the entire pond ecosystem. No health risk for animals or humans. | Advantages: Immediate, visible removal of algae; no chemicals required. | Advantages: Fast effect – algae usually die within a short time, water initially becomes clear. | Advantages: Effective against green water (suspended algae); usually provides clear water within a few days. No direct chemicals are added to the water. |
Disadvantages: The effect develops over days or weeks; regular application is necessary and requires some patience. | Disadvantages: Only addresses symptoms, therefore labor- and time-intensive. Must be repeated frequently. The cause (excess nutrients) remains – algae grow back. | Disadvantages: Only addresses symptoms, not the cause. Dead algae decompose and consume oxygen; released nutrients promote new algae blooms. Chemicals can also harm fish, plants, and beneficial bacteria. Requires careful dosing; effect duration is limited (reapplication necessary). | Disadvantages: Only addresses symptoms: nutrients remain in the pond and can nourish new algae. Works only during operation – if the UV device fails, algae return. Also kills beneficial bacteria in the water, which can weaken the biological balance. Requires electricity and maintenance (energy consumption, lamp replacement). |
