The Aquascape Ecosystem Pond Approach
Your ecosystem pond works with nature, making it simple and easy to keep your new water feature looking beautiful with minimal effort. Creating a well-balanced ecosystem reduces maintenance and supports healthy fish and plants while transforming your backyard into an incredible, all-natural, low-maintenance paradise. In order to have great success with your new pond, it helps to understand the critical role each component plays in the ecosystem.
Skimmer (Mechanical Filtration)
Your new skimmer filter removes debris from the pond, providing efficient mechanical filtration and keeping your pond clean and clear.
BioFalls® (Biological Filtration)
Biological filtration is provided by your new BioFalls filter. The included BioBalls™ and filter mats provide surface area for bacteria to colonize, maintaining your pond effectively by keeping it clean throughout the year.
Rocks & Gravel
The rocks and gravel in your new pond play a crucial role in your ecosystem, providing a tremendous surface area for beneficial bacteria to grow. Similar to your BioFalls, these bacteria help to break down excess nutrients in the water and dissolved organic debris on the pond floor.
Water Circulation
Water movement and circulation is another extremely important component to the ecosystem pond approach. Proper water flow throughout the pond maintains necessary oxygen levels, optimizes water quality and minimizes maintenance in your pond.
Fish
Pond fish are an integral part of your ecosystem. Fish minimize algae growth by grazing on excess string algae growing in the pond. In addition, fish waste provides important nutrients for your aquatic plants.
Aquatic Plants
Aquatic plants are the foundation of every water garden or ecosystem pond. Aquatic plants help balance your entire pond ecosystem, minimizing maintenance and maximizing optimum water conditions. Plants absorb nitrogen, ammonia, nitrates and other minerals that can lead to unsightly water conditions.
