Importance of Pond Care

03 Jul 2014

Pond care is more than just making your pond look beautiful.  Proper pond care will ensure your body of water is clean, balanced, safe for fish, and beautiful!  Successful pond treatment can be achieved with a little work, some knowledge, and the right pond products.  Pond owners that are unsatisfied with pond treatment are missing one or more of these key pieces: work, knowledge, or the right products.

Successful pond treating is largely based on a pond owner’s commitment to monitoring and treating the pond on a regular basis.  Treatments will occur approximately 1-2 times a month depending on weather.

Another equally important part of successful pond treating is the pond owner’s eagerness to learn about the products and how they work.  It is important to care for a pond for several reasons.  Ponds are collectors; they are made to collect run-off.  This run-off often contains fertilizer, livestock waste, septic run-off, and leaves.  All of these things contribute to growth in a pond.  If these things aren’t managed excessive growth will choke the pond making it useless or worse cause a fish kill.

So…If you are willing to give the effort, the right products and knowledge can be found right here on our website.  For additional information or to speak with a pond expert contact Sanco today.
