Microbe-Lift Montmorillonite Clay 4 (MPN MLKKB4)

The secret to raising healthy and vibrant Japanese koi lies in the clay mud they are raised in. Our MICROBE-LIFT/Calcium Montmorillonite Clay is sourced from one of the world's highest calcium clay deposits. When added to your pond water, this calcium-based clay can contribute to the production of incredibly healthy and deeply colored koi. The markings on your koi fish will become more prominent and vibrant, enhancing their overall beauty. Unlike natural ponds where carp have access to mud to obtain essential micronutrients and minerals, plastic, vinyl, cement, and rubber ponds lack these beneficial nutrients on their bottoms. Our MICROBE-LIFT/Calcium Montmorillonite Clay has a unique negative electric charge that binds the clay particles to positively charged toxins in the water. As a result, it not only serves as a nutrient source for your koi but also acts as a natural flocculent, helping to clarify and "polish" the pond water by filtering out the particles that are bound up. In addition to providing fish nutrition through mineral ingestion and improving fish color, our calcium montmorillonite clay detoxifies and clarifies your pond water, leaving it clean and clear. To ensure effective dosage, refer to the table below based on your pond size: - For ponds between 100 to 249 gallons: Use 1 level teaspoon of clay twice weekly for maintenance. - For ponds between 250 to 500 gallons: Use 1 level tablespoon of clay twice weekly for maintenance. - For ponds between 501 to 1,000 gallons: Use 2 level tablespoons of clay twice weekly for maintenance. By incorporating our MICROBE-LIFT/Calcium Montmorillonite Clay into your pond care routine, you can provide optimal nutrition for your koi and enjoy the benefits of improved fish color and purified pond water.
