 Refresh®
for Garden Ponds
Refresh®
is clay mineral produced in the Yasawagi district in Akita

Those who live in the district used to take this clay as a secret
medicine for diarrhea, injury, toothache, etc. They call the clay
"marvelous soil" or "magic white soil."
Refresh®
is a wonderful gift
from the earth, which cannot be reproduced artificially.
What is Refresh®
Refresh®
is a mineral composed of montmorillonite in its core and
16 necessary minerals such as assilica acid, aluminum, calcium,
magnesium, sodium, ferrous, etc., around the core. These
effective minerals keep the water clean and help to supply nutrition,
dissolving slowly into the water through an ion exchange system.
These natural workings are necessary elements to keeping koi healthy and
improving the vividness of their coloring.
Refresh®
is pure natural montmorillonite, and it belongs to a
useful group of minerals. If it is mixed with other natural or
artificial minerals, its original mineral balance would be
broken. Koi being bred in soil bottom ponds containing this
product have glossy coloring. Their glossy coloring fades when
they are moved into concrete made ponds. Some studies of soil
bottom ponds show that they are usually made with clay. When the
quality of the clay is better, the koi become healthier and have better
coloring.
