Viresco Koi contains mainly nutrient remover microbes and few waste digesting microbes. Use it therefore to control blanketweed in clean koi ponds. These ponds usually have bottom drains and the pondkeeper uses vacuums and skimmers. Therefore little organic detritus is present.
Usually one application is enough to reduce the nitrate level to zero and maintain it at that level for a number of weeks or months. Many customers make one application and then are free from blanketweed for more than one year. Others require more than one application. The pondkeeper is advised to check nitrate levels on a regular basis, say, once or twice per week to see how the Viresco™ is reducing nitrate. Many people see nitrate moving to zero in less than a week: for others it takes a few weeks to reach zero. We suggest that, if little perceptible change is observed within, say, three weeks, another dose or part dose should be used. We would suggest that the pondkeeper considers the application of maintenance doses. However, we do not wish to recommend specific amounts at specific times. Our microbes do lose some of their viability over time as each generation of new ones succeeds the previous. It is therefore worthwhile using a nitrate test as an indicator of when more product might need to be applied
