Product Description: C-FLO-6 feeds on non-living organic matter and is particularly effective at reducing nutrients that are food for planktonic (suspended) algae. C-FLO-6 is a special formulation of beneficial microorganisms, bacterial enzymes, nutrients and synergists. They are naturally-occurring in soil and water. It is a freeze-dried culture on an inert carrier; a dry free-flowing powder with tan and white particles.

What It Does: C-FLO-6, when used as directed, will eliminate bad odors from the water, improve water clarity, restore vitality to the bottom sediment, enhance nitrification cycles in the water, break down organic and fecal waste, and improve water quality for fish in aquaculture applications.

How It Works: C-FLO-6 microorganisms feed on nitrogen and phosphorus, reducing the availability of these nutrients in the water column. The microorganisms take up phosphorus as PO4 and bind it in their cell mass, making it unavailable for algae. C-FLO-6 accelerates the natural nitrogen cycle and expedites the conversion of ammonia into nitrite, then nitrate. It oxidizes ammonia to form nitrites by the addition of oxygen, from dissolved oxygen in the water. Then, it takes oxygen from the nitrite or nitrate in order to grow and in the process, nitrogen gas is released. Ultimately, C-FLO-6 inhibits the accumulation of ammonia and nitrite. C-FLO-6 is a preventative maintenance product; it is not a quick fix. It will not kill a standing crop of algae but over time, it will cut off the algae’s food source by out competing the algae for the nitrogen and phosphorus in the water.

Where It Can Be Used: C-FLO-6 can be used in both fresh water and salt water environments. Aquaculture ponds, golf course ponds, back yard recreational ponds and small lakes are all places where C-FLO-6 can be used. Use of CLEAN & CLEAR Concentrated Enzymes and the CLEAN-FLO Multiple Inversion/Oxygenation system will enhance the effectiveness of C-FLO-6.

Compatibility with Other Products: C-FLO-6 is compatible with shading dyes in your lake or pond. It is not compatible with aquatic algaecides or herbicides. Algaecides and herbicides kill algae and weeds and they will also kill bacteria. When algae and weeds die, nutrients are released back into the water column and are available to be utilized again. Repeated use of algaecides and herbicides reduces a pond’s ability to regulate its nutrient level, causing it to be out of balance. If aquatic algaecides or herbicides are used in your pond, you should wait about 2 weeks before applying C-FLO-6 (the time required for the pesticides to break down may be longer or shorter in some cases). C-FLO-6 will help bring the nutrient load back into balance and promote a healthy aquatic environment.

Safety: C-FLO-6 is not a pesticide and will not kill weeds or algae. When used as directed, it will not harm humans, plants, fish, animals, birds or the environment. C-FLO-6 does not require a license or a permit. The bacteria in C-FLO-6 are naturally-occurring and non-pathogenic.

Application: Bottom dissolved oxygen must be 2 mg/l or higher and water temperature must be at least 55 degrees F. Initial application = 6 lbs. per acre foot of water. Maintenance dose = 1 lb. per acre foot every 2 weeks. C-FLO-6 should be slurried with lake or pond water and poured in water around shoreline.
