Reasons to Clean your 30388 Pond

Some ponds are never cleaned and the waterways and its occupants survive very well. However, a majority of ponds are created with high fish populations or are built in spots where the aquatic environment receives a great deal of debris over the year. Even if you just establish a few fish initially, in a healthy pond they will multiply to an unsustatinable level until the number of fish will overcome the environmental balance of your aquatic environment and maintenance levels.

Removing debris during the autumn months helps eliminate wastes in the lower levels of the pond which may turn anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not available, creating a breeding ground for harmful disease, or which may decompose, creating ammonia and other harmful pollutants that can be kept under the ice. The continual establishment of these toxins can start fish kills during the winter. While maintaining a clearing in the ice over winter will assist with alleviating the accumulation of toxins, pond cleaning before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall possiblity of issues.

Maintaining the pond in the warmer months may help with reducing diseases and parasites that often form as the pond and its biology warms up for the summer, as well as eliminate the overall availability of nutrients that stimulate algae growth.
