As with all things, water gardens can have their share of problems. Leaks, cloudy water and other issues can be relatively easy to address. Although, when your favorite koi starts having problems, it takes an expert to find the cause.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that professional. Our experts have over fifteen years of fish keeping experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a Bachelors of Science specializing in fisheries and aquatic environments. He has supervised 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 fix an aquatic problem. Unfortunately, there are cases when your fish are far worse than first thought, and we need to use microscopic analysis to pinpoint the source of the problem. We have the tools to do just that. Once we have verified the problem, we can make suggestions on how to eradicate parasites and disease with regards to the specific problem.

Reasons to Clean your Palmetto, 30268 Pond

Some aquatic environments are never maintained and the waterways and its residents survive very well. However, a large number of aquatic environments are established with large fish populations or are built in locations where the koi pond is inundated with a great deal of debris during the season. Even if you just establish a few fish initially, in a balanced pond they will breed to an unsustatinable level until the number of aquatic creatures will push the environmental limits of your aquatic environment and filters.

Removing debris in the fall reduces wastes in the bottom of the pond which may become anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not forming, creating a breeding ground for harmful disease, or which may start rotting, creating ammonia and other harmful pollutants that can be kept under the water shelf. The build-up of these pollutants can create fish depopulation over the winter months. While maintaining a clearing in the ice during the cold season will assist with alleviating the accumulation of gases, pond maintenance before the beginning of winter will help eliminate the overall possiblity of problems.

Cleaning the aquatic environment in the warmer months may assist in reducing infections and unwanted organisms that often occur as the aquatic environment and its biology warms up for the middle of the year, as well as eliminate the overall supplication of nutrients that stimulate algae growth.
