Water Garden Tip of the Week.

As the days get cooler and shorter, aquatic plants will descend into winter dormancy. This lack of surface coverage can put fish at greater risk of predator attack. Leaf netting put down for fall can be left over the pond all winter to help protect your fish.

Tip of the Week*

Hot water is stressful to goldfish and koi. If your water temperature rises above 90°F it is best to stop feeding until the water can cool back down. This will help reduce the stress the fish must endure.

Tip of the Week.*

Part of the cycle of water lilies and other aquatic plants includes foliage turning brown and then rotting off. This is normal as long as new foliage is also emerging. To help reduce the amount of sludge build-up in your pond, remove dying foliage, including spent flowers, from plants before it has a chance to fall into the water and decay. Basic routine maintenance like this goes a long way towards keeping a healthy pond.

Do you have trouble with fish rooting around in the soil of the potted plants in your pond? Fish, especially koi, will root in the soil and make a mess as well as uproot some plants. If this is a problem in your pond, try placing potato-sized cobblestones on top of the gravel or aquatic potting media to discourage this behavior. Make sure you don't cover the plant's growing point with large stone.

The best ways to prevent an outbreak of any fish disease are to maintain optimum water quality and to quarantine new fish arrivals before introducing new fish and possible disease along with them.*

Tip of the Week.*

Summer is the time when oxygen deficiencies are most likely to occur. Obviously fish need oxygen, and insufficient aeration may result in dead fish. In very hot weather fish are using more oxygen and the water is holding less. If you have a heavy fish population or low circulation in your pond, consider supplementing with extra aeration. This can be in the form of a waterfall, fountain, or simply an air pump.

Tip of the Week.*

The heat of summer often means more pond water lost to evaporation. Keep an eye on this to top off the feature as needed. Remember to always add a dechlorinator when adding water to a pond with fish. Any amount of chlorine can be harmful. Small amounts don't mean imminent death, but can still reduce proper gill function.

Tip of the Week*

One of the most common mistakes water gardeners make is to over-clean your biological filters. The media in your filter is home for beneficial bacteria. Cleaning too well (especially if using chlorinated water) removes much of the bacteria and it has to reestablish for the filter to operate at its maximum efficiency. To clean a filter, all you need do is lightly rinse the media. You just want to remove any debris that is restricting the flow. A good way to clean many types of media is to slosh it in a tub of pond water or rain water. Fiber media can also be knocked against a surface to remove some debris. If you have multiple types or layers of media, you also rotate which get cleaned to help ensure strong bacterial colonies.

Tip of the Week*
Bacteria in a biological filter converts ammonia to nitrites and nitrites to nitrates. In a water garden with plants the nitrates are used by the plants. In a koi pond, or other pond with few or no plants, the nitrates just continue to build up in the water. Nitrate is far less toxic than ammonia or nitrites, but if allowed to build up for too long it will present problems. At least every 3 to 5 weeks a partial (about 10 to 20%) water change is recommended to reduce nitrate levels in fish ponds.

Tip of the Week*

Whether you feed your fish every other day or 3 times per day, feed only what the fish can eat in under 5 minutes. If there is still food floating after 5 minutes scoop out the excess and feed less next time. Uneaten food can be harmful to the pond’s water quality.

Tip of the Week*

Have you noticed tiny red worms in your pond filter? No need for concern. These harmless creatures are Blood Worms and they can be beneficial to the pond by consuming some of the detritus (sludge) in your filter. Blood Worms are the larvae stage of chironomid midges – a very small fly that resembles a mosquito but does not bite.

For best plant performance make sure to fertilize your aquatic plants regularly. Water lilies and lotus are heavy feeders and need to be fertilized every 3 to 4 weeks. Regular fertilization coupled with the right growing conditions will give you the maximum benefit of growth and blooming.

Increase the life of your pump with routine care. Every time you clean your filter, inspect your pump and clear away any debris from the intake. The number one cause of premature pump failure is neglect (number 2 is using the power cord as a handle). Clean away debris and check around the impeller to ensure that there are no blockages.

When adding packaged bacteria to the pond, turn off any ultraviolet lights for 24-48 hours to allow the bacteria time to colonize on surfaces.*

Tip of the Week*

The usual time for koi and goldfish to reproduce is when the water warms in spring. If you want to help ensure survival of baby fish, provide a safe haven for the eggs and fry (baby fish), as the adults will eat as many as they can get. This safe haven can be soft filter material or a Spawning Basket. But think first as too many fish can lead to poor water quality.

Tip of the Week

"When choosing a new pump for your pond or water feature, it is important to look at all factors. Obviously, we first want to make sure the pump will provide the needed flow. Then we look at purchase price, and warranty. An often overlooked factor is the cost of operating the pump."

"You can determine the operating cost of any pump by using this formula: amps x volts divided by 1000 x KWH cost x 24 hours-a-day x 30.4 days-per-month = cost per month.
If the pump is rated in watts instead of amps use this formula: watts divided by 1000 x kWh x 24 hours-a-day x 30.4 days-per-month."
