Additionally, water gardens can have their share of issues. Leaks, cloudy water and other issues can be very easy to address. However, when your favorite koi starts acting funny, it takes a trained eye to find the cause.

Pondscapes Atlanta has that professional. Between us we have over a decade of aquatic management experience. Our Aquatic Biologist, Rich Carter, has a Bachelors of Science specializing in fisheries and aquatic environments. He has supervised several large-scale fish stores, and a exotic fish hatchery. Pulling from this extensive background he can help with getting your favorite fish healthy again quickly. Sometimes, a simple water quality test and observation are enough to help a fish-related problem. Unfortunately, there are cases when your aquatic environment are far worse than first thought, and we need to supply a microscopic analysis to pinpoint the source of the problem. We have the tools to accomplish just that. Once we know the issue, our experts can make suggestions on how to eradicate parasites and disease based on the specific problem.

Reasons to Clean your Winder, Georgia Pond

Some aquatic environments are never maintained and the ponds and its residents survive very well. However, a majority of aquatic environments are created with high fish populations or are established in locations where the aquatic environment receives a great deal of debris over the year. Even if you just establish a few fish in the beginning, in a balanced pond they will multiply to an unsustatinable level until the number of fish will push the environmental balance of your pond and biofilter.

Removing debris during the autumn months helps eliminate wastes in the lower levels of the aquatic environment which may turn anaerobic if necessary oxygen is not available, generating a breeding ground for harmful disease, or which may decompose, releasing ammonia and other dangerous chemicals that can be kept under the ice. The build-up of these toxins can create fish depopulation during the winter. While keeping a clearing in the ice over the cold season will assist with alleviating the buildup of toxins, pond cleaning before the beginning of winter will help eliminate the overall potential for problems.

Cleaning the pond in the spring may help with reducing diseases and parasites 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 stimulate algae blooms.
