UltraClear Sludge Digester

Eliminate pond sludge and pond muck. Eliminate sediment from fish & animal waste, decayed leaves and grass, and eliminate organic decay from dead fish & wildlife. Prevent oxygen depletion from unhealthy pond sludge during the spring & summer. Pond Sludge accumulation occurs for a variety of reasons. Leaves and grass clippings can be blown into the pond. Droppings from animals such as fish, ducks, or geese can sometimes be significant. Even over-feeding the fish in the pond can promote sludge accumulation. In many ponds, the largest contributor to pond sludge (or muck build-up) build up is dead algae. Every year, algae populations increase to at least some extent during the warm sunny months. These algae die off, and then become part of the pond sludge accumulation. Pond sludge build-up causes four significant problems. First, it results in an anaerobic zone (meaning a zone without significant dissolved oxygen). An anaerobic zone is a place where potentially dangerous, dise
