Bacterial additions can have benefits to ponds but sometimes those benefits are not real noticable. The amount or degree of benefit depends of the pre-existing conditions of the pond. As Cecil mentioned, not a lot of published peer reviewed scientific studies have been done on the benefits of adding bacterial, microbial and enzyme formulations to ponds. Sewage waste lagoons are not typical ponds and have a lot of differences from ponds. Even the sewage people and bacteria supply usually don't consider their lagoons true ponds.
