Stagnant Pond Water

07 Nov 2013

Many people see pond aerators and pond fountains and think that they are strictly for show, to add an aesthetic value to a pond and possibly add entertainment for people enjoying the pond. These are all great reasons to have an aerator or fountain, but not the only reason why people have them. Pond aerators and fountains are beneficial to the health of a pond as they are to the beauty of a pond.

The problem with pond water that is not being circulated and not moving is that it forms the ideal situation for mosquitos, weeds and algae to grow; all are things not welcome in a pond. Aerators and pond fountains keep the water moving and add oxygen to the water which only benefits pond water and the life within pond water. For example, a pond that is properly aerated will surely produce larger more abundant fish than one that is not. Fish help with the mosquito problem and can also add to the many activities that can be enjoyed on a pond. With the purchase of an aerator not only with the water be healthier but the beauty of the pond will be better too.
