As with all things, water gardens can have their share of issues. Leaks, algae blooms and other issues can be very easy to address. However, when the favorite fish starts having problems, it takes a professional to find the problem.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that trained eye. Between us we have over a decade of fish keeping experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a Bachelors of Science specializing in fisheries and aquaculture. He has supervised several large-scale aquatic stores, and a exotic fish hatchery. Pulling from this extensive background our expert can assist in getting your favorite fish back on the road to recovery quickly. Often times, a quick water quality sampling and observation are enough to help a fish-related problem. Unfortunately, there are cases when your fish are far worse than first thought, and we need to use microscopic analysis to find out the source of the problem. Pondscapes Atlanta has the tools to do just that. Once we have verified the problem, our experts can make suggestions on how to eradicate parasites and diseases based on the specific problem.

Reasons to Clean your Pine Lake, 30072 Pond

Some ponds are never cleaned and the waterways and its residents survive very well. However, a large number of ponds are created with large fish densities or are established in spots where the koi pond receives a great deal of debris during the season. Even if you just establish a few fish initially, in a healthy pond they will breed to an unsustatinable level until the number of aquatic creatures will overcome the environmental limits of your aquatic environment and biofilter.

Cleaning during the autumn months reduces wastes in the bottom of the pond which may turn anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not available, creating a breeding ground for harmful disease, or which may decompose, creating ammonia and other dangerous pollutants that can be kept under the water shelf. The establishment of these pollutants can create fish kills during the winter. While maintaining a hole in the ice over the cold season will assist with alleviating the accumulation of toxins, pond maintenance before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall potential for problems.

Cleaning the pond in the spring may help with reducing infections and parasites that often form as the pond and its biology heat up for the summer, as well as eliminate the overall supplication of food that stimulate algae growth.
