Reasons to Clean your 30358 Pond

Some aquatic environments are never cleaned and the ponds and its occupants survive very well. However, a majority of ponds are created with high fish populations or are built in locations where the aquatic environment is inundated with a great deal of debris during the season. Even if you start out with just a few aquatic animals in the beginning, in a healthy aquatic environment they will multiply to an unsustatinable level until the number of aquatic creatures will push the environmental balance of your aquatic environment and biofilter.

Removing debris in the fall reduces wastes in the lower levels of the pond which may become anaerobic if necessary oxygen is not forming, creating a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, or which may start rotting, creating ammonia and other dangerous chemicals that can be kept under the ice. The establishment of these toxins can start fish kills during the winter. While keeping a clearing in the ice over winter will help with alleviating the accumulation of toxins, pond maintenance before winter sets in will reduce the overall possiblity of issues.

Maintaining the pond in the warmer months may help with reducing infections and unwanted organisms that often form as the pond and its biology heat up for the middle of the year, as well as reduce the overall availability of nutrients that start algae blooms.
