Why use TerraPond Clay?
TerraPond is
an all-natural product that is recognized by most Koi breeders as
the foremost product to introduce minerals and nutrients to your
precious Koi. This introduction can be done through your pond
water as the Koi will absorb the minerals and nutrients through
their skin ( TerraPond dissolves to micro fine size particles),
through their gills, as well as ingesting directly by eating the
TerraPond. This results in your fish achieving their true
potential. Additionally, TerraPond performs wonders by purifying,
clarifying and treating
your water.
TerraPond is the
purest form of Calcium Montmorillonite clay in the world. It is
mined from a unique deposit in the United States. This rare
deposit was formed millions of years ago when the Colorado River
carried these minerals from the Rocky Mountains to the present day
site of California Earth Minerals mining operations.
TerraPond improves
your Koi's immune system through nutrition and detoxification. It
helps by eliminating waste products, bacteria and decomposed
organic matter in the water. When these particulates are absorbed
and safely removed, it results in healthy fish and clear pond
water.
TerraPond is also a
powerful and effective treatment for water gardens, golf course
waterways, lakes and ponds where clarity and purity is an
important environmental concern. It offsets the effects of
Chlorine chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides,
heavy metals and toxic substances potentially harmful to local
water supplies.
Ingredients
100%
natural, organic clay
TerraPond is an edible, organic clay compound that when eaten,
delivers nutrients and trace elements that benefit the health,
vitality, longevity and appearance of your fish. It is a rare and
pure form of Calcium Montmorillonite (Bentonite). TerraPond was
formed millions of years ago, when glacial melt carved through
today's Rocky Mountains in the western U.S. Favorable properties,
brought boiling water to the surface of the earth creating
extensive pools of bubbling mud. These bubbling pools churn the
calcium montmorillonite adding beneficial natural minerals.
Pure Calcium Montmorillonite
Calcium montmorillonite, also known as "living clay,"
principally consists of minerals that enhance the production of
enzymes in all living organisms. Calcium montmorillonite mineral
deposits have been used by Native American healers for centuries
as an internal and external healing agent. The Native Americans
would use mineral rich clay on open wounds and for stomach or
intestinal distress. The key to these benefits is the natural form
in which these minerals are found.
How
IT WORKS
TerraPond
-- works its wonders through a natural magnetic process. All
toxins and decomposed organic materials in nature are positively
charged. The magnetic attraction immediately begins when
negatively charged TerraPond is introduced into your pond water
and begins the micro-encapsulation process. This electrical ion
exchange process is also referred to as "flocculation."
As
a result, the electrically bonded particles are larger in size and
weight. In Koi ponds, this increased mass then becomes filterable
in most bio filter systems.
In
natural ponds (non-filtered) or larger lake environments (where
the recommended application of TerraPond is in powdered form),
these enlarged and heavier particles sink to the pond floor and
safely decompose. This process is very similar to leaves dropping
in the forest and decomposing/composting over time.
According
to Japanese Koi breeders, natural clay-lined ponds provide the
very best Koi environment. Clay provides better health,
conformation, vitality, coloration, stronger immune systems,
improved digestion and longer life. As a Koi hobbyist, when your
clay choice is TerraPond, your fish will enjoy the very best
environment you can provide. |
