As with all things, water gardens can have their share of issues. Leaks, algae blooms and other issues can be very easy to fix. However, when your favorite koi starts having problems, it takes a trained eye to find the cause.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that trained eye. Between us we have over a decade of aquatic management experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a BS in Science in fisheries and aquaculture. He has supervised several large-scale aquatic stores, and a exotic fish hatchery. From his extensive background our expert can help with getting your beloved fish healthy again quickly. Sometimes, a quick water quality test and observation are enough to help an aquatic problem. Unfortunately, sometimes your fish are far worse off, and we need to use microscopic analysis to find out the source of the issues. Pondscapes Atlanta has the right tools to accomplish just that. Once we have verified the problem, our experts can make suggestions on how to eradicate parasites and diseases based on the specific issue.

Reasons to Clean your 30151 Pond

Some aquatic environments are never maintained and the waterways and its occupants survive very well. However, a large number of aquatic environments are created with large fish densities or are built in spots where the koi pond receives a great deal of debris over the year. Regardless if you start out with just a few fish in the beginning, in a balanced pond they will breed to an unsustatinable level until the number of fish will overcome the environmental balance of your aquatic environment and pumps.

Cleaning in the fall helps eliminate wastes in the lower levels of the aquatic environment which may turn anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not available, generating a breeding supply for harmful disease, or which may decompose, releasing ammonia and other harmful chemicals that can be kept under the water shelf. The build-up of these toxins can create fish kills during the winter. While keeping a hole in the ice during winter will assist with alleviating the buildup of toxins, pond maintenance before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall potential for issues.

Cleaning the aquatic environment in the warmer months may help with reducing infections and unwanted organisms that often form as the aquatic environment and its biology warms up for the summer, as well as reduce the overall availability of food that start algae blooms.
