Bactogen is a concentrate of sporulating bacteria, enzymes, minerals and trace elements formulated to maintain the biological filtration of your aquaponic system. It improves the biological quality of the water and accelerates the organic pollutant purification cycle, ensuring a healthy environment for your fish and plants throughout the year.
Product details
- Bottle of liquid bacterial concentrate
- Cryophilic sporulating strains (active from 10°C)
- Composition: bacteria, enzymes, minerals and trace elements of natural origin
- Shelf life: 12 months under normal storage conditions
Role in the system
Nitrifying bacteria are the living heart of your aquaponic system: they convert the toxic ammonia produced by fish into nitrites, then into nitrates that plants can absorb. Their activity can decline in winter, after a filter clean, treatment or major water change. Bactogen re-seeds and strengthens the biofilter bacterial colonies, maintaining an efficient nitrogen cycle even under challenging conditions.
Benefits
- Cryophilic strains: active from 10°C, perfectly suited to winter greenhouse conditions
- Year-round maintenance: usable almost all year to maintain biological filtration
- Complete purification: improves organic pollutant degradation
- Mineral oxides: produce only oxygen and mineral salts as metabolites
- High survival rate: sporulating strains resistant to variable conditions
How to use
Shake well before each use. Pour the recommended dose directly into the biological filter or tank. Use at system startup, after a water change of more than 30%, after a filter clean, or as monthly maintenance to keep filtration optimal. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
