The use of only natural ingredients means that your pond can remain a natural environment and gives you the reassurance that your pond and its inhabitants are safe when using Sludge Klear.

Sludge Klear uses natural bacteria to help remove sludge from all ponds. Our bacteria help reduce sludge waste and maintain healthy sludge levels.

Low Temperature Cleaner

The unique, patented bacteria that we use in Sludge Klear are capable of working efficiently at 4°C and lower. Most other treatments can only work down to 8°, allowing your sludge to continue getting worse.

As we only use natural, safe ingredients, Sludge Klear poses no danger or threat to any fish, pets, wildlife or plants. In most cases fish will become more active and healthy whilst pond plants will thrive all year.

    Love this product, slow working be patient but it will eventually get on top of pea soupers. Harmless to frogs and tadpoles. Be prepared to continually clean out your filter, I use fine wadding
    Allied to big lilies, big filter and oxygen I have finally got on top of a full sun, dirty, green pond with this produc

    I’d been given the task of restoring my ill Father’s neglected pond. Picture the slimiest, most stagnant bog you’ve ever seen and that’s still not even close to how horrid this pond was. Surprisingly there were fish actually living in it as well.
    After repairing and ordering spare parts for the beat up filter box that he’d somehow managed to shoot a hole in with an air pistol(!) I now had to deal with the mountain of sludge sitting in the pond. Using the net only got me so far so I tried various sludge clearing products with little success.
    I saw Envii Sludge Klear being used in an online video so decided to give it a try. I followed the instructions on the packet and after two days I looked out of the window and had to make sure my eyes weren’t playing tricks. I could actually see the fish! A week later and I could see the bottom of the pond!
    After a few uses the pond is now clear, the pump doesn’t get jammed and I don’t have to clean the filters every day. The fish are also a lot more lively and seem quite happy.

    We only have a small pond which we cleared (of a lot of sludge) during lockdown. The water went green again in the hot weather pretty quickly. Bought these to try and clear it and used 2 tablets at a time for three weeks. I didn’t see much change for a while but then I don’t have a pump and the write up did say it could take a while. Well, several weeks later I can report that it really does work! The water is really clear and clean looking. I’ve bought the liquid version to keep it that way. It’s easy to use and does what it’s meant to. Just have a little patience initially… it will happen!

    I have treated for a second time as the old saying little is more.
    My pond is starting to look less murky & fish are looking a lot happier blanket weed contained & my kockney koi filter is flowing & running free.

    Seems to work. I’ve only got a 50 gallon pond so thought it would work fairly quick. First Tablet took 5 days to clear the sludge, which ended up in the filter. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to turn off the uv light on my pump/filter, which might be the reason it took longer.

    The day after each treatment the amount of green sludge and algae trapped in the filter and that I was able to net out of the water quadrupled so I must be working. I’ve only used for four weeks so I’ll keep going to see what happens.
    One major negative is that I would not but the product again from Amazon. All six of the tablets were completely crumbled to dust in the bottom of the packet. This made dosing more of a guess by having to try to divide the powder into equal measures. Hopefully the garden centres will re-open so I can look for it there to try again.

    Seems to work

    l`m a relatively new pond owner and was confronted with string algae for the first time last year. l decided that l needed to get the pond water in the best possible state before it tried to take over this year.
    My understanding was that l needed to clear the sludge from the bottom of the pond, hence these tablets. The water is now crystal clear and the debris on the bottom is diminishing. l`m continuing to stir it up and re-treat as recommended, so hope l might gain the upper hand this year!

    Easy to use and clumps all the muck at the bottom of the pond so that you can either leave it to break down or net it and remove it. Beware of trapping tadpoles , newts etc in the clumps if removing. There were loads in mine so I left it at the side of the pond for a few days.

    Our pond has turned very green over this Summer and I tried Envil Sludge Klear to see if it would help where other algae treatments have failed. I turned off the UV light and have cleaned the filter as per the instructions. So far there is some improvement but it has not magically cleared the whole pond. I am going to persevere and try a second treatment.

    Easily used but you must read the instructions fully and carefully as the product needs at least two hours “brewing” prior to its’ introduction into the pond.
    It’s too early yet to be able to judge the effect of the treatment as it can take a few applications to be completely effective.

They need sunlight for their shells and to allow them to exhibit normal behaviour, but unfortunately that means green water and a build up of slime! I tried your product more in hope than expectations and was truly amazed with how quickly the water cleared and the slime disappeared. I will definitely buy it again.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI added this to my pond after treating by it with blanketweed killer. The blanketweed was dying and amazingly even that which was attached to the sides of the pond became dislodged. This Sludge Klear has certainly helped break down the dead weed into small clumps of gunk that gets sucked into my external filter. I’ve had to clean the sponges in the filter every few days while the Sludge Klear does it’s thing but it certainly appears to be working. Takes a while for the whole process but worth the wait. Recommended.

    Easy to use following the instructions. Pond hadn’t been cleaned for a few years and was full of sludge.
    Already the pond is clearer and I can see the fish once more.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersThis product really does work. I had a very bad sludge problem and I thought I would try this after reading the reviews! all I would say is it really does require patients, perseverance and time. I followed all the instructions, cleaning the filters regularly etc, I must admit after about 4 weeks I was beginning to think it wasn’t going to work, but then I started to notice a difference so I carried on, It did take around 8-9 weeks to clear the majority of the sludge, but It was worth it, and my perseverance paid off so stick with it. The best thing is being able to see my fish other than when they come to the top to feed. I am going to continue using this product as a regular maintenance (maybe once a month) to keep on top of it, although Im reluctant in the winter/bad weather (too cold)

    Having done a major clear and tidy of our pond early this summer we disturbed a lot of sludge and algae and our normally clear water became very murky.
    Using this with pond klear and it’s slowly working. I can see where sludge is clearing off the stones on the bottom and our water is getting clearer.
    You must clean the filters and pump every few days. I have been mesmerised by how much sludge they’re getting.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI had been having problems this year with the water in my small (700gal) pond being murky and a lot of silkweed; on top of that, there was obviously an underlying build up of sludge both in suspension and on the bottom. To compound the problem, my pump/filter has broken down and I’ve been unable for various reasons, to attend to it.

    In an attempt to get things under control and having heard good things about Sludge Klear, I thought that I’d give it a go. I have to say that I am impressed! Within a week of the first application there was a noticeable improvement in clarity – things underwater, for some time unseen, were becoming visible again!

    I will hopefully be able to get my pump and filter back in action soon but this treatment is a very good start!

    It takes some time to clear but if you follow the instructions the sludge does start to go it’s very easy to apply but you do need to be patient. My pond hasn’t been cleared in years and I have had to scoop a lot of sludge out too but the water is really clear now after 2.5 weeks.

    Amazed at how quickly it started to work. I filled a bucket of pond water as instructed added the tablet. within a couple of minutes the sludge from the pond water had separated itself and was lying at the bottom of the bucket. leaving clear water !! Would certainly recommend. Will be ordering again..
    Have since received another order, My pond water has never been as clear as it is now. Well worth every penny.. Highly recommended.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersI usually use another product but decided to give this a go. I only use biological products as had a disaster before with
    some other stuff. I followed all the instructions, cleaned my filter out, turned of the UV. Used a triple dose to give it a boost.
    I did not expect instant results but by the next day I could see my fish on the bottom of the pond! I was really pleased.
    My water was not overly bad, it was pleasantly tea coloured but lots of dirt particals suspended so you could only see the fish
    when 5 inches near the surface. Not sure about sludge on the bottom, I shall carry on with the dosing and see how it goes.
    So far so good. Personally I dont like crystal clear water, it never looks natural and you can see all the pond baskets, filter tubes
    etc. I like clear light tea coloured water. My goldfish never complain they always seem very happy.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI bought this pond sludge clearer because the pond was murky and has some blanket weed. It’s a very small pond, with no filtering system, so I put two tablets in a bucket and just over two hours later popped the mixture into the pond. The next morning, expecting no change to the pond, I checked it and the water was crystal clear. I still have the blanket weed to deal with, but it’s now much easier to spot and once that is gone, my little pond will look glorious. Very pleased.

    Golden Review Award: 24 From Our UsersI always have problems with blanket weed at this time of yearn (Lots of leaves etc fall into the pond over winter, and as the temperature starts to warm up again, all of that bio matter causes havoc). I’ve tried all sorts over the years and the only thing I’ve ever found to work was a complete water change whilst clearing the debri from the bottom of the pond. This product however actually seems like it might have worked. I followed the instructions and turned off the UV lights in the filter whilst the bacteria got established. I think the instructions said leave it off for 5 days, but I forgot to turn it back on so it was probably off for about 10 days. It’s been another two weeks since the UV light was back on and the water is looking crystal clear. By now, the new lilly leaves growing in the bottom of the pond are covered in weed but this time there’s nothing on them. Of course, it could be the cold temperatures this year have something to do with it, but either way, with this product in my pond it’s cleaner than it ever has been at this time of year.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersPrior to using ‘Envil Sludge Clear I’d added another maker’s algae control balls with no apparent effect. When I recieved the ‘Sludge Klear ‘tablets I thought I’d made an error since the problem was green water rather than sludge. However, I added one tablet as per instructions & saw no change for about 2 weeks. I then noticed what appeared to be small water fleas making jerky movements through the murk. Improvements were barely noticeable at first, but then things started to gather momentum & after about 4 weeks I have a perfectly clear pond. I will add that the pond is new, has no fish & I intend it to be for wildlife. I don’t know if water flea eggs were part of the Sludge Klear tablets, or whether they arrived via another route. I’m also unsure as to whether the Sludge Klear tablets were working in conjunction with the earlier algae control treatment. Who cares, I have the desired result after adding ‘Envil Sludge Klear!’

There is a huge difference in the pond. From being covered in blanket weed and brown and cloudy. The pod weed has almost cleared completely and the water is much much clearer. So much so that I can now see we had fish, lots! There is still a way to go as the starting point was so bad but I am really pleased with the results so far. I’m going to add some more Sludge clear today and clean the filters (grim job) and know I will see even more improvement.

    Although much of my green water remains the help and support given by Bio8 is really good. I have a bit more work to do with the filters and water tests and am optimistic that it will clear to an acceptable level.

    This product works. As the description says, it may take time, it is not an instant fix. I am currently using it with Envii Pond clear Extra and together they are clearing the murky green water that my pond has been suffering with this summer.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersMy pond has a filtration system which generally works well. However, each year in warmer weather a green algae slime spreads across the surface. A protective grid (small grandchildren are frequent visitors) makes skimming impossible. I used equaliser first followed a week later by sludge clear (double dose) and increased the frequency of cleaning the filters. Within a week the pond was crystal clear. Heavy rain, I believe helped speed the process as it disperses the algae. Using test strips shows perfect results across the board. My pond needs a little more plant cover. Envii products have helped greatly and I’m delighted with the results achieved in a short time.

    Pity you can’t just throw these tablets into the pond and let them do their magic! However they did do the job

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI had a fair amount of green floating algae on my small pond, used a quarter of a tablet, after a couple of days noticed that it was not looking healthy, after 4 days I cleaned my filter and add d another quarter tablet. The algae is certainly much less, the water looking much clearer and I am impressed, I reckon another quarter tablet and the pond will be weed free. This is such a simple operation and seeing visible improvement, it gets 5 *’s from me. Probably larger volumes of water would take longer and stronger doses but for me, it works.

    Golden Review Award: 14 From Our UsersI only have a small water feature pond. But it was very murky now that the summer sun helps the algae grow! I broke one tablet into 1/4 and then mixed as instructions. Within one week the water is crystal clear – so clear that I can see all the mosquito larvae!!! now to deal with them LOL
    Excellent product – highly recommended. Already passed on details to two friends.
    Fast delivery service too.

    Golden Review Award: 31 From Our UsersI’m not sure how much my review can help as I am a complete novice when it comes to fish ponds.
    I inherited my pond with the recent purchase of a new house. After a bit of fiddling, some Googling and YouTubing I had a fountain, and (very green) water running through the filter and eventually arriving at the top of a waterfall via a lions mouth. After a few days of cleaning the filters 2/3 times a day the water started to get a bit thinner, albeit still very green. I found and ordered Sludge Klear, I also found out about uv bulbs! Who knew?!
    So using the Sludge Klear I have petty much followed the instructions, although I don’t know how many litres the pond holds, I’m pretty certain its no larger than 5000 litres. I gave it a double dose to begin with and switched the light off for 4 days, true to the instructions after a few days the pond was very cloudy, and more gunge in the filters. After a week I added a single dose and switched the light off for 2 days, again the pond got more cloudy, towards the end of the second week the pond was definitely improving with water clarity. I put another single dose in three days ago, there has been a definite improvement in the water. I can start to see the fish when they are below the surface, and today I saw three fish. Since the beginning of all this I had only ever seen one! Still more time to pass to give Sludge Klear its full six weeks or so, but definitely so far so good.

    Be patient this doesn’t work straight away. Its taken 3 weeks but we`ve got there and I`m very pleased. I can actually see my fish now!

    This product seems to be more of a slow burner. There is certainly a marked improvement in sludge removal and the filters require noticeably more cleaning than normal so it is obviously working but in my case I think it may need a second treatment to back up the initial effect. I would recommend this product and the selling company who were a pleasure to deal with.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI have used this “Sludge Gulper” for a while now. Through my work as a gardener I maintain ponds and water features across four counties. I can honestly say that nothing I have tried from the big name brands can beat this stuff, for reliable results at range of temperatures (even in winter) a good price. Most of the ponds I come across have wildlife as well as fish in them, plus many invertebrates, none of which are adversely affected by Envii, in fact fish are usually more active after treatment. All in all a product I keep in my arsenal as a water gardener and I am happy to recommend to all of my customers.

    Seems to do the job. I can still see sludge and some algae but I guess it will take time and it’s still prefable to use this rather than lots of strong chemical concoxtions.

    My pond was really bad, so I think it did do its job. I will drain my pond later in the year and use the p[rodust ahain.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI purchased both the sludge remover and the pond clear. I was concerned that I might overdose my fish and plants. as I only have a very small pond. I contacted the company by telephone. Spoke to a real person immediately. The gentleman I spoke to was really helpful, he gave me advice on how to use the products and reassurance that my fish and plants would not be harmed if I followed his instructions. He also proceeded to give me a lot more valuable advice on how to manage my pond and was obviously very enthusiastic about his products. I have followed the advice given and my pond is clearing very well, the fish and plants are looking good and I am made up with both the products and importantly the after sales help. I thoroughly recommend the company and will make them the first port of call when looking for pond related items.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersSeems to have worked and my pond water seems clearer however it did take two doses and 6 weeks and lots of filter cleaning. So I would say it has worked ok.

    This item arrived quickly; it was surprising by its size and was put through the letterbox. We had little confidence it would make significant difference to the pond when the water was already a gloomy shade of black, and signs were apparent that the sludge was already breaking up. The instructions were a little confusing but this was not helped by our spectacular ability to overlook the most obvious requirement – to dissolve the first two tablets in pond water. We dissolved them in tap water! The third dissolved tablet we forgot about and promptly watered the garden with it. Oh dear, not much hope for good results at all. We also put one of those barley straw pouches in the water at the same time. Yet in a couple of weeks the look of the pond was transformed. We cleaned the pump filter (which was full of sludge) maybe four times, but the water, while not devoid of bits that can be churned up, is clear down several inches. Previously, fish could only be seen when feeding on the surface. The product seems expensive for not much in the container, but we would highly recommend as extremely effective.

    Golden Review Award: 26 From Our UsersWe had a big problem in the pond with the water very green and full of algae and a lot of sludge. We could not use the pump because the pond had hundreds of tadpoles and other wildlife and we did not want to kill them. So we treated the pond with Sludge Klear – it took three applications at double the dose but at last it has worked very well. The pond water is now almost completely clear and the sludge has gone to a large extent. We shall continue to treat the pond with Sludge Klear regularly. This product was like magic. It took a few weeks for it to work but that is because it is natural product. The manufacturer contacted me to give me advice because I had bought more than one pack. This is excellent customer service and much appreciated. I shall be using this product regularly from now on.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersFor as many years as I can recall our well stocked fish pond has turned
    green in Spring and we haven’t seen a fish until almost Autumn. We’ve tried
    planting (much to the delight of our grass carp), as many chemical remedies
    to reduce the algal bloom as there are on the market and traditional barley
    hay. It’s safe to say that we have never known what eventually gets on top
    of the problem, it just clears one day.

    This year however is different. We introduced your product in early April
    during which, luckily for us, there was a really cold spell which,
    presumably, delayed the onset of our annual algal bloom problem. The product
    states that it works at cold temperatures but nevertheless given our 10 year
    experience of green water and the multiple products used I must say not much
    success was anticipated. I’m delighted to state that I was completely wrong.
    I followed up with a second dose a week later and at about one month from dose
    one I’ve added a third. We’re now mid May and the pond is delightfully clear
    despite the warmer weather and long daylight hours. We no longer have to
    wait until feeding time for a glimpse of a fish mouth!

    Further, the slurry I remove from the filter box no longer sends a whiffy
    bad eggs aroma up my nose when I lift the lid and I suppose this is a
    further effect of the product.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersWe have just put the second treatment in our pond and so far it seems to be working well.We have a automatic filter which pumps its self out if the sponges are dirty .All through the winter the filter was not pumping out at all,since putting this treatment in the filter has been really working to get rid of the sediment so this product really does work. Yes it dose seem rather expensive but it saves keep netting out in the cold weathe
