It depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Do you have algae problems, fish, plants, etc - we will be happy to discuss options or you can look at the Ecological Laboratories website for additional information.

40,000 gallons is a pretty big pond. It would take about 7 boxes (8 packets/box) for the first dose, then repeat each week. I don't think it would be cost effective to use this product. Thanks for the question and if there is anything else that we can help you with, give us a call 208-336-3747

The Dosage for 40,000 Would be 8 bags a Week, or one complete box ! This is a 4 week cleaning application, you get 8 bags in the box so you would use 8 bags a week for 4 weeks straight. add it on the same day each week! I use it together with( Microbe-lift PL liquid.) for my 5,000 gallon pond, I Clean my filter once a week or as needed! and I get great results. I am sure you would see positive results in your 40,000 gallon pond, But you might want to go with the Liquid Products From Microbe-lift. Go to www.microbelift.com to see what products they have available that might be more cost effective for your application. The Dosage for 40,000 Would be 8 bags a Week, or one complete box !

I use 2 packets for a 1000 gallon pond, so if you do the math.....8 packets. Works great. Wait for all of the Spring pollen and stuff dropping from the trees to be over first.

I bought the 1gallon bottle. According to the directions, 1 quart usually treats about 30 gallons, or until the water turns violet.

This pump will produce a bubble out flow surface about 8-9 ft in diameter that obscures viewing. It might be a bit large for 1000 gallons pond. We find it works well for our 6000 gallon pond.

Hello - the instructions say to mix 0.9 gram (one scoop of the measuring spoon that comes with the powder) with one or two gallons of water to treat 1000 square feet. It also says to add 2 teaspoons (1/3 fluid ounce) of nonionic surfactant per gallon of water; I used dish soap as the nonionic surfactant and the results were fine. Here is a link to a discussion about dish soaps; looks like some are better suited for this purpose than others: http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/lawns/msg0511192431499.html

It depends on the size of your pond. Dosage isn't super critical, since nobody knows the exact size of their pond. Mine was approximately 2,500 gallons. In late fall when the water temp got close to 50° (that's when most bacteria becomes dormant), I put in half the Microbe Lift, and a week or two later put in the second half, plus the dry packs. The stuff works.

I used 1 1/2 Lifeguard bulkheads on my aquaponic beds 4'x8'x14" made of plywood and rubber pond liner with a sheet of aqua-paper (It's a water proof paper made for showers) The beds fill and drain every twelve minutes and I haven't experienced any leaks in six months, so I would say yes! Wow! 400 gallons that's over 3000lbs of water! Hope your tank goes well..

Pump says it is 400 gph. Dimensions of rock piece are as listed by other commentators. I placed waterfall in a 40 gallon tank I converted into a pond and it is sufficient power for the waterfall. Very nice and soothing to listen to water, attracts loads of birds to my urban desert backyard.

The wattage depends on the size of the pond. Both K & H (khmfg.com) and Farm Innovators (farminnovators.com) have a zone charts for their pond de-ricers. Both have contact information so you could always email them your pond specifics for help, as I have yet to find anyone who list information for ponds larger than 1200 gals.

The information I have shows that the 16 oz container ( 473 ml) treats a total of 940 gallons. If you divide that by the milliliters, one milliliter would treat 2 gallons (1.98). This product is safe enough that I doubt you could have too many issues with a slight over dose.

So far Im only feeding a 200 gallon pond....But it seems to be driving 2 - 4" stones and 3 regular little ones ,pretty well. So I would guess 2 this size or maybe one the next size up

Depending on your area of the country! I live in SW AZ and have a 2500 gallon pond. 40 watts was not enough. And I had troubles with this. I now went to 2 55 watt jaebo? or something like that. I would say if you have an algae issue, you may need more also. I don't believe too much uv filter would hurt anything, except keep your pond very clean.

I just sprinkled it in my pond about 3 cups full, we have about a 3/4 acre pond and that worked good.

I used the following link, appears to be about 41 gallons, 37.75 x 14 x 18.25 inches. http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/converter/volume-calculator.php

It's perfect for an aquarium but a pond is a little to much. Mine is in a 40 gallon aquarium.

4 Gal. 12x15 works great. I already had a system but wanted something smaller easier to manage. I added a valve and tubing to container for drainage. As well I upgraded my airstone to two and larger ones than what comes with it. I would suggest an extra pump capable of running two to three lines for the airstones and hook up two. More bubbles means more co2 and better roots. Hope it helps.

Depending on soil from 2 tablespoons to half a cup per gallon of water if soil is acid start with smaller amount if soil is alkaline increase dosage
