Additionally, water gardens can have their share of problems. Leaks, cloudy water and other issues can be relatively easy to fix. However, when your favorite koi starts acting funny, it takes an expert to find the cause.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that expert. Our experts have over fifteen years of fish keeping experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a Bachelors of Science in fisheries and aquaculture. He has managed many large-scale aquatic stores, and a exotic fish hatchery. From his extensive background he can help with getting your beloved fish healthy again quickly. Sometimes, a simple water quality sampling and observation are enough to fix a fish-related problem. Unfortunately, sometimes your fish are far worse than first thought, and we need to use microscopic analysis to find out the source of the issues. We have the right tools to do just that. Once we know the issue, we can make recommendations to eradicate parasites and disease based on the specific problem.

Reasons to Clean your East Ellijay, GA 30540 Pond

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

Cleaning during the autumn months reduces wastes in the bottom of the aquatic environment which may become anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not forming, generating a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, or which may decompose, releasing ammonia and other dangerous pollutants that can be kept under the ice. The build-up of these pollutants can start fish depopulation over the winter months. While keeping a clearing in the ice during the cold season will help with alleviating the accumulation of toxins, pond maintenance before the beginning of winter will reduce the overall potential for problems.

Cleaning the pond in the spring may help with reducing infections and parasites that often occur as the pond and its biology warms up for the summer, as well as eliminate the overall supplication of food that start algae growth.
