Kusuri Malachite Green

Kusuri 30 Formalin-Malachite Premix

Kusuri Formalin and Malachite Premix is a ready to use full strength formulation, popular as a pond-wide anti-parasite treatment. It is particularly good for White Spot, Skin Flukes, Chilodonella, Oodinium and most Protozoan Parasites.

How to use:

Slowly apply to the pond over a 1 hour period, this will prevent shocking the pond with a highly concentrated dose.

Do not use Malachite and Formalin Premix in conjunction with salt.

Stop feeding during the course of treatment because Malachite and Formalin will reduce the bacteria in the filter, continuing to feed will cause an ammonia spike.

Once the course of treatment is complete monitor your water parameters regularly and add good bacteria to restart your filters, such as Kusuri Filter Starter Boost or Kusuri Starter Pink.

Do not use below 12.5°C.

Dosage: 

• 250ml treats 11,365 litres (2,500 gallons)
• 500ml treats 22,730 litres (5,000 gallons)
• 1 litre treats 45,460 litres (10,000 gallons)

Health and Safety guidelines:

Please do not eat, drink or smoke whilst handling chemicals. Wear disposable vinyl or latex gloves and appropriate eye protection.

Kusuri Biobalance

Kusuri Biobalance is a natural mineral powder that will raise carbonate alkalinity (KH), raise pH and assist in stabilising pH swings. Biobalance is a high grade pure carbonate with essential elements and dosed on a weekly basis will improve your water quality. Once you have the desired KH level re-dose weekly. If trickling water in and out, regular KH tests will be required to maintain the desired KH level.

Carbonate hardness can become depleted because both the fish and filter bacteria require Calcium Carbonate and Salts to thrive. In soft water areas ponds can be prone to pH crashes due to low levels of carbonate alkalinity (KH).

Dosage:

• As a KH regulator: 25 grams per 1000 gallons of pond water daily until desired KH is reached. Repeat whenever required.
• As a pH buffer: 25 grams per 1000 gallons of pond water daily for one week. Continue at the same rate every other day until pH is stable. Repeat as and when required.

Description:

• Natural mineral treatment
• pH buffer
• KH regulator
• Stabilise pH swings
• Available in 1kg, 3kg and 11kg (Bucket)

Kusuri Sludgebuster

Kusuri Sludge buster contains selected bacteria to efficiently bio-degrade sludge and detritus in ponds, pipework, filters, areas hard to clean such as folds in pond liners and improves pump flow rate. Regular use prevents accumulation of organic sediments, is ideal as a spring and autumn treatment, reduces biological oxygen demand (B.O.D), increasing oxygen availability to fish and the biological filter.
Kusuri Sludge buster is best applied weekly or at least once a month. Ideal for use in ponds with no bottom drain system where the build up of waste can cause poor water quality and clarity. Kusuri recommend using Sludge buster once a month in this situation to keep the pond clean and hygienic, assisting in preventing bacterial infections.

Dosage:

• Use 100ml per 1000 litres (220 gallons) of pond water.
• For best results use above 15°C (59°F).
• 500ml treats 1,100 gallons
• 1 litre treats 2,200 gallons
• 5 litre treats 11,000 gallons

How To Use:

Kusuri Sludge buster is best applied weekly or at least once a month. Ideal for use in ponds with no bottom drain where the build up of waste can cause poor water quality and clarity. Kusuri recommend using Sludge buster once a month in this situation to keep the pond clean and hygienic assisting in preventing bacterial infections.

For best results use above 15°C (59°F) as bacteria split multiply and divide more efficiently the warmer the water temperature.
