Arctic Blend™ - The Ultimate Beneficial Bacteria for Winter Pond Care

100% Natural Cold-Water Pond Solution
Designed to thrive in frigid temperatures, Arctic Blend™ ensures your pond remains healthy all winter, preventing water quality issues and fish stress that often lead to springtime health problems. With its advanced, cold-water bacteria formula, Arctic Blend™ is your go-to solution for winter pond care.

Why Choose Arctic Blend™ for Winter Pond Care?

Because it works—delivering proven results in cold temperatures! With just one easy treatment every two weeks, your pond and fish will be in pristine condition come spring.

Key Benefits of Arctic Blend™:

  • Eliminates Deadly Ammonia: Effectively removes both ionized and un-ionized ammonia from pond water.
  • Neutralizes Toxins: Removes toxic nitrites, nitrates, and phosphorus.
  • Operates in Extreme Cold: Performs even in water as cold as 35°F (1.7°C).
  • Reduces Sludge: Digests bottom sludge throughout the winter to minimize spring cleanup.
  • Boosts Fish Health: Helps maintain a healthy immune system during winter months.
  • Preserves Oxygen Levels: Unlike other treatments, it won’t deplete oxygen in your pond.
  • 100% Natural and Safe: Contains no chemicals; completely safe for fish, pets, and wildlife.

What Sets Arctic Blend™ Apart?

Arctic Blend™ isn’t your average “nitrifying bacteria.” Its unique formula contains billions of cold-tolerant microbes harvested from the Arctic Ocean, specially designed to absorb and neutralize ammonia in winter conditions. These microbes process ammonia naturally without relying on the typical nitrogen cycle, ensuring your pond water remains toxin-free all season.

Common Questions About Arctic Blend™

  1. How does Arctic Blend™ work in cold water when traditional nitrifying bacteria don’t?

    • Arctic Blend™ utilizes specialized microbes that absorb and neutralize ammonia without the traditional nitrogen cycle. These microbes are uniquely suited to perform in temperatures as low as 35°F, keeping your pond water safe for fish all winter long.

  2. Why worry about ammonia in winter if my fish aren’t eating?

    • Even when not eating, fish produce ammonia through respiration. Arctic Blend™ effectively neutralizes this ammonia, preventing buildup that can harm your fish.

Bonus: Unique Arctic Microbes

Harvested from the icy Arctic Ocean, Arctic Blend™ microbes are naturally adapted to cold conditions. They produce their own antifreeze to maintain peak performance in water temperatures between 35°F and 52°F, giving your pond unmatched winter care.

Usage Instructions

  • Start in Fall: Begin treatments as temperatures drop and continue all winter.
  • Use in Spring: If any product remains, it can be used until water temperatures reach 65°F.

Available Sizes:

  • 32 oz: Treats up to 5,000 gallons for five months. (Sku# AB32 | UPC# 636824838248)
  • 128 oz: Treats up to 20,000 gallons for five months. (Sku# AB128 | UPC# 636824838255)

Arctic Blend™ is the ONLY winter pond care product proven to remove ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, and phosphorus while digesting sludge in water temperatures below 39°F. Ensure your pond and fish stay healthy this winter with Arctic Blend™—trusted by pond owners for superior performance.

  • Arctic Blend Precautions

    Arctic Blend™ winter pond care

    KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

    For garden and pond use only! NOT for fish used for human consumption.

    You can refrigerate Arctic Blend™, however, it can also be stored at room temperature of 65 degrees F or below.

    You do not have to mix Arctic Blend™ with pond water. Just measure the correct amount for your pond and add it to your pond, no mixing. *NOTE: * never mix any Aqua Meds koi fish medications or natural pond bacteria products with tap water. The chlorine in the tap water will harm the “microbes” in the product.

    THE BIG ARCTIC BLEND™ QUESTION?

    Q: How does Arctic Blend™ remove ammonia from frigid pond water when it’s a known fact that “nitrifying bacteria” which keeps ammonia and nitrites at zero does not perform in cold water?

    A: Here’s how it works. Arctic Blend™ IS NOT a “nitrifying bacteria”. Arctic Blend™ is formulated with billions of natural unique microbes that act like sponges, absorbing the ammonia from your pond water. Then these unique microbes process the ammonia through their system, rendering the ammonia harmless to your fish. You never have the common “nitrifying bacteria nitrogen cycle” which is, high ammonia then high nitrites and at last, less toxic nitrates when using Arctic Blend. The best part is, Arctic Blend™ is 100% Natural!!
