As with all things, water gardens have their share of issues. Leaks, algae blooms and other problems can be relatively easy to fix. Although, when the favorite fish starts acting funny, it takes an expert to find the problem.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that expert. Our experts have over fifteen years of aquatic management experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a BS in Science in fisheries and aquaculture. He has managed many large-scale fish stores, and a tropical fish hatchery. Pulling from this extensive background he can assist in getting your favorite fish healthy again quickly. Often times, a quick water quality test and assessment are enough to help an aquatic problem. Unfortunately, sometimes your fish are far worse off, and we need to use microscopic analysis to pinpoint the source of the issues. We have the right tools to do just that. Once we have verified the problem, our experts can make suggestions on how to eradicate parasites and disease with regards to the specific situation.

Reasons to Clean your 30135 Pond

Some ponds are never maintained and the ponds and its residents survive handsomely. However, a large number of aquatic environments are established with high fish densities or are established in locations where the koi pond is inundated with a great deal of debris over the year. Regardless if you start out with just a few aquatic animals initially, in a balanced aquatic environment they will breed to an unsustatinable level until the number of fish will overcome the environmental balance of your pond and pumps.

Cleaning in the fall helps eliminate wastes in the bottom of the aquatic environment which may turn anaerobic if necessary oxygen is not forming, creating a breeding ground for harmful disease, or which may start rotting, creating ammonia and other dangerous chemicals that can be trapped under the water shelf. The continual establishment of these pollutants can lead to fish depopulation during the winter. While maintaining a hole in the ice during winter will assist with alleviating the accumulation of gases, pond cleaning before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall potential for issues.

Cleaning the pond in the warmer months may help with reducing infections and parasites that often form as the pond and its accompanying biology heat up for the summer, as well as reduce the overall supplication of food that stimulate algae blooms.
