EA PURE+ Filter Start Gel

EA PURE+ Filter Start Gel

Concentrated Live Bacteria Gel for Fast Filter Maturation & Ammonia Control

EA PURE+ Filter Start Gel is a highly concentrated live bacteria culture designed specifically for new pond filters. The gel formulation allows beneficial bacteria to stick directly to filter media, ensuring rapid colonisation and faster filter maturation.

Once applied, the bacteria begin breaking down ammonia and nitrite immediately, helping to establish a stable biological filter and reduce stress on fish during new pond setup or filter changes.

It is ideal for use in all types of pond filtration systems, especially bead filters and moving bed systems.
