If you've ever [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Barbour-Paris.php]barbour pas cher soldes[/url] owned a pond, you know that koi pond maintenance is not enjoyable. I will tell you how to keep your koi pond maintenance to a minimum. You definitely don't want to fall behind, it will get be harder to maintain. Fortunately for koi and gold fish, they can live through poor conditions however for us, that just means we might not even see the problems in the pond and it will continue to get dirtier and your pond maintenance will drive you nuts.
If you want minimal koi pond maintenance, the water conditions need to be perfect, or at least near perfect. Well what does this mean? It simply means that the levels, such as the nitrites, nitrates and ammonia, need to be kept [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin[/url] to a minimum. High levels means more pond maintenance. What causes high levels of this is one of two things, or a combination of both; overstocking your pond, or having improper or insufficient filtration. A common mistake is overstocking the pond, which is very easy to do since [url=http://www.teatrodeoro.com/hollisterde.php]hollister[/url] they grow to be very large in short time. The more fish you have the more filtration needed and the more pond maintenance you will have to do!
If you haven't done your yearly pond maintenance yet in the beginning of spring, you had better start SOON! You do not want to fall behind and make your pond maintenance worse. The first thing to do is remove as much muck as you can from the bottom of the pond. Cut off and remove dead vegetation. To clean your filter mats and bio media, just shake them off and give a good rinse with pond water, not tap water. Never clean your filters with tap water because it contains chlorine and will kill the beneficial bacteria. Drain about 50% of the water out of [url=http://www.par5club.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] the pond, and refresh [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/barbourjackets.php]barbour[/url] with clean dechlorinated water. You may want to try and do this slowly in case any of the koi's immune system are low, you don't want to shock them. Just be sure to [url=http://www.osterblade.com]moncler outlet[/url] dechlorinate the water. I use dechlorinator that comes in powder form. You simply mix it with some water and distribute around the pond. It's much cheaper than liquid dechlorinator. For the same price [url=http://www.b2b-builder.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=428947][/url] you can get about 10 times the amount of dechlorinator.
Ok so you have a pond, you did your yearly pond maintenance, and it has been running but it's still filthy, and your pond maintenance never stops... what do you do now? If you're cleaning constantly, and pulling out string algae constantly, it may be time to think about adding another or bigger filter to minimize your pond maintenance. There are many options but be sure to choose one that's the proper size for your pond. And if your problem is too many fish, I doubt you're going to want to get rid of them, so buy a filter that can handle the amount of fish or start building a bigger pond.
Pond clarity can be controlled by using many different products. UV filters work great and fast for getting rid of green [url=http://www.tagverts.com/barbour.php]barbour online shop[/url] water! There's also quick fixes and [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/barbourjackets.php]barbour.co.uk[/url] fish safe chemicals you can use [url=http://www.par5club.com/louboutin.php]louboutin[/url] that will help but remember you're not fixing the problem. A simple trick to keeping water [url=http://zzb.nchu.edu.cn/E_GuestBook.asp]barbour pa[/url] clear [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/abercrombiepascher/‎]abercrombie soldes[/url] is the use of barley straw. Also another thing I recommend which drastically reduced my pond maintenance was the use of gravel, it traps debris from floating all over and clouding the water.
Don't spend all summer doing pond maintenance! These few tips should help you minimize your koi pond maintenance and let you enjoy your pond more!
