sera Pond UV Blocker

Sun protection for naturally clear water

  • reduces the UV light transmission of the pond water
  • blocks UV radiation and thus reduces cloudiness (green water)
  • inhibits warming by means of shading, especially in shallow water zones
  • natural humic substances condition the mucous membranes of the fish
  • ideal for use in summer or in a sunny location


Excessive sunlight can represent a threat to the pond ecosystem. Ornamental fish ponds and natural ponds with high levels of sunlight (UV-A, UV-B) or large shallow water zones can quickly become warm and cloudy. Pond inhabitants often react with stress to the light intensity and, in the worst case, can suffer a kind of sunburn. For this reason, a pond should ideally be designed so that at least a third of its area is in the shade. In natural ponds, it is a particular challenge for pond owners if they do not want to use algaecides or a filter system.

Pond UV Blocker reduces UV light transmission due to concentrated humic acids and, when used regularly, ensures natural clarification of the pond water. Goldfish, Koi and also native fish species benefit from the shading effect, so their stress levels are reduced. The humic substances contained in Pond UV Blocker condition the sensitive mucous membranes of the fish and promote their well-being.


Optimal pond care for a healthy ecosystem

The garden pond is a sensitive biological ecosystem that is exposed to a wide variety of factors. Natural water evaporation, rain showers, but also significant temperature variations have an enormous influence on the biological equilibrium. The well-being of the animals in the pond, such as goldfish, Koi and native species, e.g. bitterlings and rudd, also depends on these factors. To stabilize the pond ecosystem, it is important to know the water parameters. Particularly in Koi ponds with high fish stock density, the pH value, carbonate hardness, total hardness, nitrite, nitrate and phosphate should be checked regularly using water tests (drop tests or strip tests). With the water conditioners, care products and filter media from sera, you can create an ideal basis and react quickly and easily in severe cases.
