Reasons to Clean your 30703 Pond

Some ponds are never cleaned and the ponds and its residents survive very well. However, a majority of ponds are created with high fish populations or are built in spots where the koi pond receives a great deal of debris during the season. Even if you just establish a few fish in the beginning, in a healthy aquatic environment they will breed to the point that the number of fish will push the environmental balance of your aquatic environment and pumps.

Cleaning during the autumn months helps eliminate wastes in the lower levels of the pond which may turn anaerobic if sufficient oxygen is not available, generating a breeding supply for harmful organisms, or which may decompose, releasing ammonia and other harmful pollutants that can be kept under the ice. The build-up of these pollutants can lead to fish depopulation over the winter months. While maintaining a clearing in the ice during the cold season will help with alleviating the buildup of toxins, pond maintenance before the beginning of winter will help eliminate the overall possiblity of problems.

Maintaining the aquatic environment in the warmer months may help with reducing infections and parasites that often form as the aquatic environment and its biology heat up for the middle of the year, as well as reduce the overall supplication of food that stimulate algae blooms.
