Natural way to reduce the growth of cyanobacteria and green algae in water reservoirs.
Bacterial preparations help to improve the quality of surface water in swimming lakes, ornamental ponds and reservoirs used for irrigation or aquaculture.
Our bacterial products are safe for the environment, fish, birds, wildlife, pets, livestock and swimmers. The preparations are not genetically modified and are not pathogenic. The microorganisms used in their production are naturally found in both soil and water. The treated surface water can therefore be used immediately after application for recreation, fishing and other activities.
The application of beneficial bacteria (Algaway Bio W, Ecoboost™) reduces the concentration of phosphorus (Ptotal) in the water column. It is thus a suitable means of reducing the concentration of nutrients usable for the development of phytoplankton. The application is carried out during the growing season.
The action of selected bacterial strains leads to a reduction in the thickness of the deposited sediments in cases where they contain a large amount of organic matter. Muckaway™ contains beneficial bacteria that accelerate the decomposition and mineralisation of organic sediment.
Before bacterial preparations can be applied, it is always necessary to consult with the relevant authorities (the regional public health authority, the river basin or watercourse administrator, nature protection authorities and the water management authority) and obtain a permit. Therefore, as part of the project we will:
Prepare a proposal for the dosage of the bacterial preparations
Discuss an exemption for the application of substances harmful to surface water (Note: From the point of view of the law, such a substance is any substance applied to surface waters.)
Supply the bacterial preparations
Apply the bacterial preparations
We offer delivery and application of proven and safe products of natural origin suitable for the treatment of bodies of water intended for ornamental purposes, aquaculture or swimming.
Algaway Bio W is a mixture of highly concentrated beneficial bacteria designed to support a clean and healthy ecosystem. These bacteria help to optimise biological processes in the aquatic environment (reducing the production of ammonia and nitrites), which limits the growth of algae and cyanobacteria. Algaway Bio W has a positive effect on the nutrient cycle, accelerates the decomposition of organic biomass, consumes suspended organic matter and reduces the occurrence of oxygen deficits. Activated bacteria fix excess nutrients (nitrogenous substances and phosphates) that are formed by the decomposition of plant and organic residues or as a result of anthropogenic activity.
The advantages of this simple method are that it improves the quality of swimming water through natural means (the microorganisms used in its production are naturally found in the soil and water), it has low operating costs and it poses absolutely no risk to health or safety.

Pollution in bodies of water is caused by, among other things, the decomposition of organic matter that has fallen, drifted, settled and accumulated in a reservoir over time. This can be, for example, decaying plant and animal remains or an overgrowth of dead phytoplankton (cyanobacteria and algae). MuckAway™ is a blend of natural beneficial bacteria that accelerate the decomposition of the organic component of the deposited sediment, thus promoting its mineralisation and volume reduction.

EcoBoost™ promotes the growth and activity of natural bacteria in a body of water and binds phosphates, thus increasing the transparency of the water. It also contains more than 80 trace elements to improve the living conditions of fish stocks. It is suitable for bodies of water that receive excess nutrients, for example, from the fertilising of adjacent gardens, from sewers or from inflows from reservoirs with a high sediment content.
The application is carried out by dissolving the dose in a bucket of pond water and distributing it evenly across the lake. The dosage is two scoops for every 1,000 m2 of water surface. To achieve the maximum effect, we recommend using it in combination with Algaway Bio W or MuckAway™.
The product is 100% natural and safe for aquatic and domestic animals.

Hamr Lake
The life of the popular resort near Liberec is closely connected with Lake Hamr. We helped take care of water quality using ultrasonic elimination in the 2018–2021 and 2023 seasons.
Stromovka Park
In the Stromovka Royal Game Reserve, water quality monitoring and application of an environmentally friendly bacterial substrate to support the self-cleaning capabilities of the reservoirs was carried out in Rudolf's Pond and the Srpeček and Slunečnice reservoirs between 2022 and 2023.
Village Square Reservoir
The condition of the village square significantly contributes to the impression of the village centre. We helped to take care of the water quality in the reservoir in Nučice in the 2022 season.
Tyrš Lido
The charming area of the natural Tyrš lido attracts the inhabitants of Rakovník and its surroundings on hot summer days. We have been helping to take care of water quality here since 2019.
Leisure Area
In the area of the former songbook in Bakov nad Jizerou, a large and popular leisure area was created. We have been helping to take care of water quality since 2023 (testing since 2020).
Village Square Reservoir
We have cooperated with the municipality of Přezletice to improve the water quality in the municipal reservoir, where we have installed floating islands, a fountain and, in the 2024 season, supplied bacterial preparations. All these measures are aimed at improving water quality, reducing eutrophication and eliminating cyanobacteria and algae, thus contributing to an overall better environment not only for the reservoir itself but also for its surroundings.
