The Floatron for Koi Ponds and Fish Ponds
The floatron is perfect for backyard fish ponds and garden Koi ponds. It helps stop algae from growing and keeps the water clean and clear for your fish.
Using floatron for Koi ponds is completely safe. It relies on mineral ionisation to control algae in an environmentally friendly way. This means less time spent on maintenance and less money spent on chemicals.

Will Ionisation Hurt My Fish?
Absolutely not. Ionisation is a naturally occurring process. The Floatron simply enhances this reaction to control algae growth.
At the recommended level of 0.2–0.3 PPM (parts per million), the mineral ions are completely harmless to fish. These concentrations only affect smaller life forms like algae.

Koi Ponds also need 'good' bacteria. Does the Floatron Kill Good Bacteria?
No. There is very little impact on beneficial bacteria growth in the pond. For more detailed information, refer to the Floatron instruction manual.

What Causes Fish Stress?
Fish stress can be caused by several factors:
• Sudden changes in pH – Large, rapid shifts in pH can stress your fish.
• Poor water quality – Often due to high nitrogen compounds.
• Frequent water changes – Changing pond water to fight algae can stress fish. The Floatron helps avoid this by keeping water clear.
• Ammonia nitrates – Naturally present, but the Floatron helps reduce micro-organism growth.
• Toxins in the water – Things like fertilisers or pesticides can enter your pond via wind or rain. If contamination is suspected, a water change is recommended.
