I have a fountain/pond water feature with lots of water plants, frogs, and over 30 Comets. I opened the container, which is very easy to do using the "open" tab, and simply poured the contents into the water below the fountain head spillway. I didn't notice any of the frogs or fish reacting to the Sludge Bomb, which shows it has a very low impact on them. There is no sign of suspended impurities in the water even after 4 days from treating. I would highly recommend this product for many types of water features. Here are my ratings for this "Aqueon" Pure Sludge Bomb, on a scale of 1 - 5, with 5 being best/easiest and 1 being worse/most difficult: Packaging - 5 Directions - 5 Functionality - 5 Ease of use - 5 Environment friendly - 5 Overall Rating - 5

Review for Aqueon PURE Sludge Bomb Water Conditioner (Used in Koi Pond) We’ve been using the Aqueon PURE Sludge Bomb in our koi pond for a few weeks now, and the results have been impressive. Within a few days of application, we noticed a visible reduction in sludge and organic debris at the bottom of the pond. The water clarity improved significantly, and our filtration system seems to be working more efficiently since the load has been reduced. What we really appreciate is how easy it is to use—just drop the ball in and let it do the work. There’s no strong odor, no mess, and no need to measure out liquids or powders. It’s also a big plus that it’s safe for our koi, who have shown no signs of stress or changes in behavior after use. Overall, the Aqueon Sludge Bomb has become a valuable part of our pond maintenance routine. If you’re dealing with buildup and murky water, this is definitely worth trying. It’s low effort with high impact—exactly what you want for a healthier, cleaner pond. Pros: • Easy to use • Fast improvement in water clarity • Reduces sludge and organic waste • Safe for koi and other pond life Cons: • Might need multiple doses for larger or heavily neglected ponds Highly recommend it for any pond owner looking for an easy, effective water conditioner!
Clear, clean and dramatically less algae.

I tried both the Sludge bomb and the Pond bomb together since the instructions said they work well together. They dissolved quickly and the fish and turtle didn’t seem to mind at all. The water is clear, the pump needs cleaning less often. I normally have a bit of an algae problem no matter how often I try algicides or what I do but this has really decreased the amount of string algae on the pond liner. Will definitely purchase both again.
KILLED ALL MY FISH
I put this in my pond in the morning. Twenty four hours later ALL MY FISH ARE DEAD! Mature healthy, large comets and dozens of minnows. All dead. I read the labels
I put this in my pond in the morning. Twenty four hours later ALL MY FISH ARE DEAD! Mature healthy, large comets and dozens of minnows. All dead. I read the labels on both the box and the container very carefully looking to make sure that this product was safe for my small pond and fish. The labeling actually says that it is impossible to overdose this product. My poor fish I have had them for years. I am heartbroken.💔
Very easy to use and works
This product was very easy to use, open up the container it comes in and drop in your pond ,very easy to use, it made the water so clear. Takes all the guess work
This product was very easy to use, open up the container it comes in and drop in your pond ,very easy to use, it made the water so clear. Takes all the guess work out of how much to use.My pond has sludge build up and this seemed to break down some of it. I was impressed and plan on using this product on a monthly basis to maintain the clarity of the water and to help remove the sludge.
Easy Application
At the beginning of every Spring my pond tends to get a build up of algee and sludge as it awakens from it's winter slumber due to several of the plants in the pond
At the beginning of every Spring my pond tends to get a build up of algee and sludge as it awakens from it's winter slumber due to several of the plants in the pond dying over the winter, making for less natural filtration. This is the first year that I used a sludge bomb. I was really happy with the results. It helped make the cleaning easier. I would try this again.
One monthly treatment

The Aqueon Sludge Bomb seems like the perfect solution to keeping my 600 gallon koi pond clear from sludge and algae. I just dropped the bomb and the associated liquid into my waterfall filter and that was it. No measuring or spilling required. I love that I don't have to treat my pond for another month! It's too soon to report how well it works to decompose sludge but the water seemed to be clearer the next day.
Happy I found this
Started working right away. Had a lot of leaves from winter and this helped very quickly with the extra sludge.

It’s ok
I think this works better if you put in an already clean and clear pond, I did see some improvement but not that much so I cannot say this is the greatest product
