As with all things, water gardens have their share of issues. Leaks, algae blooms and other issues can be very easy to address. Although, when your favorite koi starts acting funny, it takes a trained eye to find the problem.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that trained eye. Between us we have over fifteen years of fish keeping experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a BS in Science in fisheries and aquatic environments. He has supervised many large-scale aquatic stores, and a tropical fish hatchery. From his extensive background our expert can assist in getting your beloved fish healthy again quickly. Sometimes, a simple water quality sampling and observation are enough to fix an aquatic problem. Unfortunately, sometimes your aquatic environment are far worse off, and we need to supply a microscopic analysis to find out the source of the issues. We have the right tools to do just that. Once we know the problem, we can make recommendations to eradicate parasites and disease with regards to the specific situation.

Reasons to Clean your Ellijay, 30536 Pond

Some ponds are never maintained and the waterways and its residents survive very well. However, a large number of aquatic environments are created with large fish densities or are established in locations where the koi pond receives a great deal of debris over the year. Regardless if you just establish a few aquatic animals initially, in a healthy aquatic environment they will breed to the point that the number of aquatic creatures will push the environmental limits of your aquatic environment and filters.

Cleaning during the autumn months reduces wastes in the bottom of the pond which may become anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not forming, creating a breeding ground for harmful organisms, or which may decompose, releasing ammonia and other harmful pollutants that can be kept under the water shelf. The establishment of these pollutants can create fish depopulation during the winter. While maintaining a clearing in the ice over winter will help with alleviating the buildup of gases, pond maintenance before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall potential for problems.

Maintaining the pond in the warmer months may help with reducing diseases and unwanted organisms that often occur as the aquatic environment and its accompanying biology heat up for the summer, as well as eliminate the overall supplication of nutrients that start algae growth.
