Bacterius® EQUINOX was developed to biodegrade cellulose material generated from dead leaves in autumn. This makes Bacterius® EQUINOX the number one choice of pond owners in Ontario looking for an effective, coldwater treatment. Bacterius® EQUINOX rapidly colonizes in the muck and quickly prevents the proliferation of sulfate-reducing bacteria that are responsible for H2S that contributes to anoxic conditions. H2S is a toxic gas that causes unpleasant odours (rotten egg smell) and deterioration of bacterial biofilms.
Benefits of Bacterius® EQUINOX for cold water.

- Ensuring better control of floating algae in the water
- Minimizing the damage of winter anoxic shock (fish kills)
