Water Features
Creating a pond in your garden whether it is with waterfalls, fish or plants is an
excellent way to beautify your home, and help the chain of life to continue in the animal
community. Pond water features are a great way to add mobility and flow to any garden or
yard landscape. A garden pond is essential for creating beauty for the eyes and ears, relaxation,
and species renewal for aquatic animals.
Types of Ponds
There are several types of ponds that can be created to accommodate any type of home decor.
There are FORMAL PONDS made from concrete, bricks and mortar. There are NATURAL PONDS
made from rocks and pebbles. There are STAND ALONE PONDS made with pots, glass and
steel structures.
There are WATERFALL/FOUNTAIN PONDS and there are
DRY BED ARROYO PONDS made from wood, rocks, pebbles and no water.
If you have koi and or fish in a outdoor pond, winter maintenance can be a little tricky. A heater works best, but even with a heater I’ve seen ponds freeze and ice over
. The chemical build up in the water can kill the fish and the same can be said for chopping the ice.. The vibration and noise will put the fish in shock… Avoiding these problems will help you have an enjoyable year with your pond.
Ponds in the winter need a floating heater to keep the surface from totally freezing. Gases will build up under the ice, that can kill fish. Pond maintenance in the winter months is different but not hard.
