What to do Now..in the North-in the South!...Poll Results....Fun (Pond) Fact

 Fish Ponds with Ice Cover and Fish Ponds warming up

Added oxygen has many benefits for the pond including faster growth for beneficial bacteria colonies to help keep the pond healthy and clear!

What to do Now..in the North-in the South...
In the South the days are getting longer and warmer already and in the North the Winter is getting long and colder! Each can bring a different sort of challenge to the pond at this time! In the South ponds can start to get murky and need a nice starting dose of beneficial bacteria to start the colony and help clear the water.
In the North the Pond Fish can start to get into real distress this time of year because Ponds have been cold and frozen for some time and oxygen deprivation can kill a lot of Pond Fish in a hurry!
Best to always have an air pump running, especially for Koi! Nothing is sadder to wake up one morning and it is too late!

 Fun (Pond) Fact (TM)   

Many insects survive the winter in the bottom of the Fish Pond including the larvae of Dragonflies and Damselflies (also called "Nymphs"). They like to burrow under dead leaves and twigs along with other insect eggs and larvae.
