A weak microbial community can be a contributing factor leading to poor water quality and poor clarity. Chemical treatments, washouts, and runoff are all common events that can negatively impact the abundance or activity of microbes in an aquatic environment. Ailing microbes and poor floc-formation can limit the community’s natural capabilities and lead to increased turbidity and nutrient overloading.
Water Column Clarifier’s proprietary formula uses select bacteria cultures and bio-stimulants to enhance biological flocculation. This process creates a microfloc which further removes turbidity from the water column. Water Column Clarifier provides a natural way to improve water clarity and quality.

LOCATION: Wisconsin
SIZE: Less than 1 acre
TARGET: Improve water clarity
SUMMARY: A small private pond in Wisconsin was experiencing water clarity issues. The pond owners requested the pond be treated with natural products.
SOLUTION: Implement a bioaugmentation program with Water Column Clarifier to improve biological floc formation and reduce nutrient loading.
RESULTS: Nutrient levels were reduced to historic lows and water clarity improved by 26%!
