You may notice some baby fish you did not even know to have been there. Goldfish often have one last spawn late in the season and the little ones eat just enough algae during the winter to grow big enough to be seen by early spring. {6ce6c22f-6f56-9b34-3454-ac214952d206}Tue, 04 Mar 2008 21:25:24 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/catalog/index.cfm/category/12/pond-fish-food.cfmFish are cold blooded - what that means is that their body temperature depends on the temperature of the environment around them. When the water is cold, their body functions are slowed to being close to non-existent. This is an important fact when considering Pond Fish Food, since the function of their digestive tract is just as impeded as the function of their heart. In the Spring and Fall your wet pets need foods that are easily digested by a digestive system that is working with all the energy of a quarterback at the end of a football game! Vegetable based foods with vitamins are best at that time.Thu, 13 Mar 2008 14:35:37 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/directions.htmStarting Febuary 7, 2008 The Pondmarket Store will be openning at 9:00 am will be closing at 6:00pm on Monday thru Saturday.

The two kinds of pond algae frustrating backyard pond owners most often, though, are "green water Algae" and "string Algae" (also called "blanket weed" or "hair Algae").Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/beneficial_bacteria.htmBeneficial Bacteria are essential helpers in the garden pond and for pond filters. They munch on pond fish waste and other organic matter and convert deadly ammonia into first nitrites and then into nitrates thus being an integral part of pond filtration. The nitrates are taken up by the pond plants. This cycle makes the Beneficial Bacteria essential to the health and well being of the water and the creatures of the pond including Koi and all other pond fish, it also helps reduce algae.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/filters.htmPond Filters are generally required to keep a Garden Pond or Water Garden healthy and clear. A Koi Pond requires more filtration than a Water Garden or a Goldfish Pond due to the large mature size of these beautiful Pond Fish.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/Fish.htmKoi are the most spectacular ornamental pond fish to add to a garden pond. Large and beautiful, Koi carp can also be tamed to eat out of a persons hand. Koi are not suitable for very small ponds (they must have at least 200 gallons of pond water per fish) and must have adequate pond filtration. Koi can live a very long time (40+ years) if the right environment is provided!Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/fish_health.htmPond Fish, like all living creatures, require that certain conditions in their environment be met to sustain their health in Ponds Koi, due to their mature size and their longevity, need a little more care than goldfish.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/fountains.htmA Water Fountain in your Garden Pond lends a touch of elegance to a garden pond or water garden as well as to larger water features such as farm ponds. It also adds much needed oxygen to the fish pond to aid the filtration of the water and keep pond fish such as Goldfish, Golden Orfe and Koi healthy (and alive) during hot summer days. These large Fountains are specifically designed for Farm Ponds, Natural Bottom Ponds, and Small Lakes (such as Golf Course Ponds and Lakes).Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/plants.htmThe terms “Aquatic Plants” and "Pond Plants" represent a wide range of Plants growing in several habitats. Some Aquatic Plants grow in deep water. Lotus and Water Lilies (Deep Water Plants) are the most famous of this pond plant group. Others grow in the shallower margins (Marginal Plants) of the pond.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/pond_food.htmGood quality Pond Food is formulated to keep pond fish healthy and helps maintain the quality of the pond water. Pond fish live in a special environment that allows only limited chances of finding natural food that would satisfy all their nutritional needs. It is also important that pond food be easily digestible to limit organic waste (which turns into Algae Food) produced in the pond by using ingredients that are easily and more fully digestible by the fish.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/ponds_and_liners.htmIf using a preformed pond, select a quality Garden Pond that will meet your needs.

Pond Pumps are the heart of the pond and should be chosen with care.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/uvc_lights.htmPond Ultra-Violet Clarifiers expose water to ultra-violet light that clumps algae particles together to make them large enough to be picked up by the Pond Filter. There is also some evidence that they are beneficial by keeping the pond water healthier for the pond fish.Thu, 29 Nov 2007 19:57:13 GMThttp://www.pondmarket.com/Water_quality.htmA backyard pond or water garden is a little world and eco-system we created that may need our help occasionally to achieve the natural balance necessary to sustain pond life and healthy pond fish.
