 Organic Digester (216FP) powder and liquid is designed for use in fish and prawn ponds, lakes and lagoons, where organic odors and organic accumulations are a problem.
Contains huge amounts of naturally occurring bacteria which have been selected and produced for their ability to degrade organic matter and reduce ammonia accumulations through a natural oxidative process.
Organic Digester has twenty specific strains of beneficial bacteria, including Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas.
Organic Digester digests these organics naturally and safely. When added to the pond, Organic Digester creates a biological chain reaction by producing greater and greater quantities of natural bacteria and enzymes. This is the most concentrated product on the market.
- Helps maintain proper pH and speeds up the natural process of breaking down waste.
- Helps eliminate offensive odors and off flavor "lasang gilk" of Bangus and Tilapia.
- Works in fresh or salt water.
- Safe and beneficial for fish and plants.
- Dissolves leftover foods, waste matter and other decaying organic matter (sludge).
- Helps to reduce Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) making more Dissolved Oxygen (DO) available for higher stocking density and increased growth rates.
- Lowers ammonia, nitrite, phosphate, hydrogen sulfide and other obnoxious gases.
- Seeds bio filters.
- Will not hurt your dog or horse if they drink from the pond water where our product has been applied.
- No problem if overdosed.
- Proven in commerical usage (Universal Studios, SeaWorld, Hollywood Forever Cemetery, Port Hueneme, California United States Naval Base Golf Course, University of Pennsylvania, 20th Century Fox Studios, Lakeside Villas/Village Condominiums, Culver City, CA., Marriott Monarch, SC (etc.)
- Also approved for entry into the State of Hawaii. One of the few bacteria's to have such a distinction!
- Acts quickly in Turtle Tanks, Pondless Waterfalls and Fountains!
- For the MSDS sheet please refer to the www.organicdigester.com site. All of our products are non chemical and non hazardous.

Nitrate and Phosphate reduction Using Strata Products:
Strata International produces several microbial-based products that will reduce or eliminate nitrate and phospahte in soil, surface water and groundwater. In addtion to nitrate and phosphate, these products will also reduce or eliminate ammonia, nitrite, residual herbicides and many other nuisance organic and inorganic compounds.
Strata International nitrate and phosphate reducing products are composed of two general types of mcirobes, faculative heterotrophs and aerobic chemolithotrophs. Facultative heterotrophs are microbes that can grow with or without oxygen and must have an external source of carbon other that CO2. Aerobic chemolithotrophs require oxygen to grow and are autotrophic, that is they use CO2 as their source of carbon. These two groups of microbes work in concert with each other to reduce or eliminate nitrate and phosphate.
Nitrate reduction is accompllished by the heterotrophic microbes that reduce nitrate (HNO3) to nitrite(HNO2) where gaseous nitrogen is released into the atmosphere. The nitrite (HNO2) is then converted back to nitrate (HNO3) by the chemolithotrophs and the process repeats over again. Each cycle, nitrate to nitrite to nitrate liberates nitrogen gas thus reducing the total nitrate present.
Phosphate is utlized by both heterotrophs and chemolithotrophs contained in Strata products. Both groups need phosphorus for production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which is the main source of energy generation in all living organisms, cell wall synthesis and DNA synthesis. Phosphate (phosphorus) is literally bound-up within the microbes themselves. The more microbes present, the more phosphorus is taken-up into their biomass.
Controlling nitrates and phosphates helps reduce groundwater contamination as well as reducing their respecitve build-up in surface soils. In addition, reducing nitrate and phosphate in soil prevents nutrient runoff into rivers, lakes and estuaries thus reducing algae blooms including neurotoxin dinoflagglates.

NEWS BULLETIN: In the near future (for overseas orders) we are coming out with a very concentrated new version of the Organic Digester. 5 gallons (19 liters) will make 55 gallons (209 liters) when added with non-chlorinated water. This will save a considerable amount of money in international shipping costs.
