At PondScapes Atlanta, we have been creating and maintaining koi ponds everywhere in Doraville for hundreds of clients for more than a decade. Pond cleaning is a very essential part of maintaining your landscaping – and we offer the service to help you make sure that your clean water garden will be gorgeous all season long.

As with all things, water gardens can have their share of issues. Leaks, cloudy water and other issues can be relatively easy to address. However, when the favorite fish starts acting funny, it takes a professional to find the cause.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that trained eye. Our experts have over fifteen years of fish keeping experience. Our expert, Rich Carter, has a Bachelors of Science in fisheries and aquatic environments. He has supervised many large-scale fish stores, and a exotic fish hatchery. From his extensive background our expert can help with getting your favorite fish back on the road to recovery quickly. Sometimes, a quick water quality test and observation are enough to fix 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 pinpoint the source of the issues. We have the tools to accomplish just that. Once we have verified the issue, we can make recommendations to eradicate parasites and disease based on the specific problem.

Reasons to Clean your Doraville, Georgia Pond

Some aquatic environments are never cleaned and the ponds and its residents survive handsomely. However, a large number of ponds are established with high fish densities or are built in locations where the koi pond receives a great deal of debris during the season. Regardless if you start out with just a few aquatic animals initially, in a balanced aquatic environment they will multiply to an unsustatinable level until the number of fish will overcome the environmental limits of your aquatic environment and maintenance levels.

Removing debris in the fall helps eliminate wastes in the bottom of the aquatic environment which may turn anaerobic if necessary oxygen is not available, generating a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, or which may start rotting, releasing ammonia and other harmful pollutants that can be kept under the ice. The build-up of these pollutants can create fish depopulation over the winter months. While maintaining a hole in the ice over winter will assist with alleviating the accumulation of toxins, pond cleaning before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall potential for problems.

Maintaining the pond in the spring may help with reducing diseases and parasites that often occur as the aquatic environment and its biology heat up for the middle of the year, as well as reduce the overall supplication of nutrients that start algae growth.
