Pondscapes Atlanta has that trained eye. Between us we have over a decade of aquatic management experience. Our expert, Rich Carter, has a BS in Science in fisheries and aquaculture. He has supervised many large-scale fish stores, and a tropical fish hatchery. Pulling from this extensive background our expert can assist in getting your beloved fish back on the road to recovery quickly. Often times, a quick water quality test and observation are enough to help a fish-related problem. Unfortunately, there are cases when your fish are far worse off, and we need to supply a microscopic analysis to pinpoint the source of the problem. Pondscapes Atlanta has the right tools to accomplish just that. Once we have verified the issue, we can make suggestions on how to eradicate parasites and diseases based on the specific problem.

Reasons to Clean your 31193 Pond

Some ponds are never maintained and the ponds and its occupants survive handsomely. However, a large number of aquatic environments are created with high fish populations or are built in spots where the koi pond receives a great deal of debris over the year. Even if you start out with just a few fish in the beginning, in a balanced 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 in the fall helps eliminate wastes in the bottom of the pond which may turn anaerobic if necessary oxygen is not available, creating a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, or which may decompose, creating ammonia and other dangerous pollutants that can be trapped under the ice. The establishment of these toxins can lead to fish depopulation during the winter. While maintaining a clearing in the ice during 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 warmer months may help with reducing diseases and parasites that often form as the pond and its biology heat up for the summer, as well as reduce the overall availability of nutrients that start algae blooms.
