Description

The Microbe-Lift KH-Carbonate Alkalinity Booster is used when the pond carbonate levels fall below the necessary level,. This nitrification will stop and will fail to start again. With the loss of KH (carbonate alkalinity) pH levels will vary and the pH will be difficult to control as the KH stabilizes pond pH.

The natural biological ammonia removal process in ponds referred to as nitrification and:

Requires the presence of KH (carbonate alkalinity) at all times.
Utilizes 7.1 mg. of KH for every 1 mg. of ammonia removed.

KH-Carbonate Alkalinity Booster Dosage:
To raise KH in 4,000 gal pond, wanting to keep the KH level above 80 ppm:
To raise by 25 ppm? add 40 scoops
To raise by 50 ppm? add 80 scoops
To raise by 80 ppm (in pond that has crashed)? add 133 scoops!

[Ideal KH level in pond is 100-300 ppm/mg/L, with the higher the better, especially in heavily stocked ponds and lined ponds.]
