Pond
Treatments
Pond Treatments help ensure a balanced pond, free of unwanted
chemicals. It's easy for a pond to get out of balance.
Causes
include:·
|
Initial pond start-up.
|
The addition of pond plants or fish.
|
Unusually warm or cool weather.
|
Leaves or other debris entering the pond.
|
Pond water should be mildly alkaline with pH in the 7.5
or 8.0 range. Test pH every two weeks and add the proper pond
treatment to correct any imbalance.
The toxic waste level, resulting from excretions by fish and
other wildlife, can build up in the form of ammonia and nitrite.
Test for toxic waste every two weeks. To help reduce toxic
waste, add some fresh water to dilute the toxic waste level.
Then add the proper pond treatments to reduce fish stress
and kick-start the natural biological toxic waste breakdown
cycles.
Fish, aquatic wildlife and some plants require oxygen to live.
Good water movement is essential for an adequate level of
oxygen in the water. This can be achieved by running a fountain
in the pond. In addition, a category of aquatic plants called
oxygenators can be added.
Prevent excess organic waste build-up by adding a sludge reduction
pond treatment. An appropriate sized filter should be used
in the pond to trap suspended particles so they can be easily
removed from the pond.
A stress free environment is essential to fish health, as
stress is a leading cause of fish disease. Maintaining high
water quality is the key to maintaining low stress.
