SupaClear MuckRid - Pond Muck & Sludge Reducer

Face it, ponds can sometimes have an unpleasant odor. This is particularly true for older, established ponds. Over time, organic matter such as uneaten fish food, dead plant debris, leaves, and grass clippings accumulate at the bottom of the pond. This organic matter breaks down and forms a layer of muck or sludge, which can emit an unpleasant odor. This is where SuperNatural MuckRid muck removal tablets come in. These tablets are specially formulated to sink deep into the muck layer and remove it permanently. Simply toss in a few tablets once a week and watch that muck and odor disappear.

SuperNatural MuckRid tablets are manufactured from billions of natural beneficial bacteria and enzyme cultures that are specifically chosen for their abilities to eat organic material that collect at the pond bottom. MuckRid tablets can remove up to 7 inches of muck/sludge in any size of pond and are completely safe for aquatic animals, waterfowl and humans. Use when water temperatures are above 50°F / 10°C.

MuckRid tablets are developed from over 40 years of application in large scale aquaculture hatcheries that contain hundreds of thousands of fish in one pond alone. We have applied that knowledge to our MuckRid tabs to develop a product that can not only remove muck quickly but also be 100% safe for aquatic life while doing its work.

Features and Benefits:

  • Eliminates Muck & Sludge
  • Breaks Down Dead Algae, Leaves & Twigs
  • Helps reduce pond odour
  • Safe for All Aquatic Life
  • Treats 1,000 Gallons for up to 5 months
  • Completely Safe For Plants, Fish, Pets and wildlife


When To Use MuckRid

SupaClear MuckRid is designed to digest pond muck that forms on the bottom of your pond or between the cracks of gravel bottom ponds. Apply MuckRid weekly whenever water temperatures are above 50° F / 10°C to eliminate and prevent muck accumulation.

How To Use MuckRid

SupaClear MuckRid tablets sink directly to the bottom of your pond to combat pond muck and organic debris. Place SupaClear MuckRid tablets in areas with heavy debris for spot control or evenly distribute MuckRid tablets throughout the pond for complete bottom maintenance.

Apply 5 tablets per 1000 gallons of pond water every week as needed when water temperatures are above 50° F / 10°C

Lotus make stunning pond plants. The larger varieties have huge leaves that grow up to 24” in diameter held up to 3 feet above the water. Their flowers are very fragrant and measure up to 8” in diameter. There are also medium and dwarf sized lotus that will suit any size pond or water feature.

Chagoi are single coloured koi that range from light greenish brown to dark brown. Although they don’t have bright colours or intricate patterns, they are well known for growing larger than other varieties. They are also renowned for being very friendly and docile and are usually the first koi to come and eat food from your hand.

Oxy-Pond Cleaners are a great product for spot treating string algae on waterfalls and in shallow streams. Simply turn off your pump, sprinkle it on any algae, wait about 15 minutes and turn your pump back on.

Daily Pond Tip

Great Blue Herons are typically solitary birds, so placing a lifelike heron decoy at eh edge of your pond often deters them from visiting your pond and eating your fish. If you have a heron that lives near your pond, moving your decoy around from time helps to maintain illusion.

Daily Pond Tip

Goldfish make ideal pets for small ponds because of their modest size. They typically grow 8”- 10" long, although they can occasionally get bigger. The best types of goldfish for outdoor ponds are Comets, Sarasa Goldfish and Shubunkins.

Daily Pond Tip

Having some algae in your pond isn’t a bad thing. In fact, algae consumes nutrients and waste products and helps to purify your pond water. Many small zooplankton feed on algae which then become food for small fish.

Daily Pond Tip

While Tropical Water Lilies may be a bit expensive and will not survive the winter in the pond except in very warm climates, they are definitely worth it. They bloom profusely all summer long; they are available in many colours and they often have large exquisitely patterned leaves.

Daily Pond Tip

Floating plants like water lettuce and water hyacinths provide shelter and hiding places for koi and goldfish and can protect them from predators like herons.

Daily Pond Tip

Frogs typically hibernate during the winter by burrowing in the mud found in ponds and lakes. Their metabolism slows down enough that they can absorb all the oxygen they need through their skin.
