Excellent water conditioner especially for hard well water. Our 16 aquariums really seem happy since switching from the oversold P word. Happy fish equals healthy fish. I highly recommend this product.

No, I do not recommend this product.

We have been using Microbelift HC [for high-count of bacteria per oz.] for >20 years in our 1/4 acre earth-bottomed koi pond, and it manages both the excess nutrients in the ag-run-off, and [at least in part because it does that so well] keeps algae under control, while helping to protect the pond fish [both minnows and koi] from die-off and even keeping the water clear.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I have used this product for years and it helps keep my pond clean and healthy. My fish are happy and active and I can see them. I would use nothing else and I always buy at Drs Foster & Smith!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Helpful?

I have been using MicroLift for many, many years and prior to that had not found anything better. It does everything it says it does by breaking down organic sludge creating a healthier pond environment. It is very rare I have to do anything to correct any of the ph or other levels in my pond, even after adding water or after a rain.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Helpful?

I have been using this for 6 years now, and it is the best product to use. No chemicals, does not harm my pets or the birds that drink from my pond all year. I would not buy anything else.

Yes, I recommend this product.

When adding any of the beneficial bacteria products does the UV filter need to be shut off. If so for how long?

7 years ago
Proper research reveals that the UV light should be turned off for at least 5 to 7 days after adding the product. This will allow the beneficial bacteria to establish quicker!

What is the difference between Microbe-Lift sludgeaway & Microbe-Lift HC??

12 years ago
I use BOTH the sludge away and the HC PLUS the spring/summer clean up to get things cleared up, then just use about 8 oz/week of HC for our 3,500 gal pond. Never had a problem with the fish reacting to it, and we have Koi as well as other species. I would make sure you have LOTS and LOTS of aeration/circulation. The labels clearly state that these products reduce the oxygen levels, and more so in hot weather.
