How It Works

The API Pond EcoFix Sludge Destroyer works by introducing beneficial bacteria into the pond ecosystem. These bacteria digest organic matter at the pond bottom—such as fish waste, decaying leaves, and algae—turning them into harmless compounds. This natural breakdown reduces sludge, clears murky water, and improves overall pond health. By keeping organic waste under control, the product helps reduce filter blockages and improves water circulation.
