Description
Effortlessly Balance Your Pond's pH with Pond Pro® Water Neutralizer – Safe and Effective Granular Formula
Pond Pro® Water Neutralizer is a granular water-treatment product designed to safely lower elevated pH levels in ponds, dugouts, lagoons and lakes.
Maintaining an appropriate pH is important for overall water quality and aquatic life. Pond Pro® Water Neutralizer provides a straightforward way to gradually reduce pH while allowing the water to stabilize between treatments.
This 10 kg granular formula can be applied directly to the water surface or through a waterfall and should be thoroughly circulated throughout the water body using aeration, waterfalls or circulators.
When fish or other aquatic life are present, adjust pH gradually. Monitor water chemistry closely throughout treatment and follow the recommended application rate and safety precautions.

Important for fish ponds: Monitor pH closely during treatment. When fish or other aquatic life are present, do not change the pH by more than 0.3 per day. Water pH in fish ponds should be between 6.5 and 8.2. Follow the product directions carefully to avoid stressing or harming aquatic life.
How to Apply
- Sprinkle the required amount of Water Neutralizer directly over the pond surface or apply it through a waterfall.
- Ensure the product is thoroughly circulated throughout the water using aeration, waterfalls or circulators.
- Monitor pH during and after treatment.
pH Stabilization
Some fluctuation in pH may occur after application. Allow at least 24 hours for the water to stabilize before considering another treatment.
Re-test the water before reapplying the product and continue making gradual adjustments as required.
Safety Precautions
Wear appropriate eye protection and a properly fitting dust mask during application. Avoid direct contact with the product and follow all handling and safety directions provided with the product.

Apply 4.5 kg of Pond Pro® Water Neutralizer per 100,000 US gallons of water, following the product directions and pH precautions.
Can Water Neutralizer Be Used in Fish Ponds?
Yes, but pH must be monitored closely. When fish or other aquatic life are present, do not change the pH by more than 0.3 per day.
What pH Should a Fish Pond Be?
The product directions recommend maintaining fish pond water between pH 6.5 and 8.2.
How Do I Apply Water Neutralizer?
Sprinkle the product directly over the water surface or apply it through a waterfall, then use aeration, waterfalls or circulators to distribute it throughout the water.
How Quickly Can I Reapply the Product?
Allow at least 24 hours after treatment for the pH to stabilize. Re-test the water before deciding whether another application is required.
Why Should pH Be Changed Gradually?
Rapid changes in pH can stress fish and other aquatic life. When aquatic life is present, the product directions recommend limiting pH changes to no more than 0.3 per day.
Do I Need Circulation During Treatment?
Yes. Circulate the product thoroughly throughout the water using an aeration system, waterfall, circulator, or other suitable means of water movement.
What Safety Equipment Should I Wear?
Wear eye protection and a properly fitting dust mask during application, and follow the safety and handling directions supplied with the product.
