Product: BRF-1A is designed for use in fish & shrimp ponds, lakes, and lagoons where organic odors & organic accumulations are a problem. It is designed as an easy Ready To Use (RTU) liquid product for application in small aquariums and up to 100,000 gallon ponds. (For larger water systems, refer to the BRF-2 dry Superbugs). BRF-1A contains naturally occurring Bacillus bacteria that have been selected & produced for their ability to degrade organic matter and reduce ammonia accumulations through a natural, highly effective process. These bacteria digest organics naturally & safely. When added to the pondwater, BRF-1A creates a biological chain reaction by producing greater and greater quantities of natural bacteria and enzymes.
The application rate for BRF-1A is determined by the nutrient load of the water. Intensive fish culturing and densely populated fish ponds will have higher levels of organic waste than a backyard pond with few fish, high oxygen levels, good circulation, etc. Your condition will be different from any other water source due to the number of variables related to your system. It is also important to realize that changing conditions, i.e. fish growth and subsequent increases in feed level, will increase the levels of organic waste in the system. An appropriate increase in the dosage of BRF-1A will be required to degrade the higher levels of waste matter at the same rate at which the previous levels had been degraded. Dosages will range from 3-5 ounces of BRF-1A per 1000 gallons for the small pond (500 - 7,500 gallons) to 1 gallon per 100,000 gallons for the large systems.
BRF-1A is available in two (2) concentrations, RTU and 8X.
The RTU (Ready To Use) is the easiest, most convenient formula. At over 300 billion bacteria per gallon, this is the most concentrated Ready To Use product on the market. Our unique preservation methods allow for shelf lives of over 1 ½ years when kept cool (preferably refrigerated). Apply 1/2 of the dosage into the bio-filter (if the system has one) and the other half directly into the pond, preferably near circulation in order to spread the beneficial bacteria throughout the water. If spraying the BRF-1A, caution is advised regarding possible pesticide residues in the sprayer that would be harmful to the bacteria.
The 8X is our concentrated formula, designed to provide tremendous freight savings. One gallon of 8X may be reconstituted into 8 gallons of RTU, or it may be used as is for large systems that RTU would be economically unfeasible. Instead of buying 8 RTU gallons that would weight over 75 lbs, we will ship 1 gallon of concentrate that will weight less than 10 lbs. This unique opportunity allows dealers and distributors to reconstitute their own gallons, quarts, and 8 oz. Biorestoration products while benefitting from substantial freight cost reductions.
STORAGE CONDITIONS:
For optimal shelf life, store in cool areas (under 70 F) and keep container tightly sealed. Refrigeration is optimal. Do not freeze.
PRECAUTIONS:
See above storage conditions. Keep out of reach of children.
PACKAGING:
This formula has been selectively tested and formulated over the past eight years. The results have pleased even the most skeptical of users that have varied from shrimp & fish farmer to lake & pond owners, and even people with seriously deteriorated lagoons who thought they were beyond help.
