Oase SeDox Speed - Fast Acting Phosphate Binder

Oase's range of lake treatments make it easier than ever before to combat and prevent algal blooms, increase water clarity and achieve ideal water chemistry within the water to help plants and animals thrive. Before adding any treatments to the water, it is recommended that the water is tested to determine the key levels within the pond before treatment is considered.

Phosphate is an essential nutrient that algae cells require to grow and duplicate. Over time phosphates can build up and accumulate in the pond or lake which essentially acts like a fertiliser to algae cells, encouraging them to grow and duplicate until an algal bloom is formed.

Much like the regular SeDox, the SeDox Speed binds phosphate and converts it permanently into mineral apatite which is harmless to fish and other living organisms in the pond. The SeDox Speed however works at a much faster rate, sometimes taking just a few hours. This does come with an increase in price though, making the SeDox Speed best suited for emergency situations when the health of fish stocks is at high risk and fast action is required.

SeDox Speed is especially effective as a follow up treatment to algae treatments as the process of breaking down algae releases phosphates into the water. If these phosphates are not dealt with then they remain in the water where they can actually encourage further algae outbreaks.

The Oase SeDox is available in 4.8kg and 9.6kg units.
