Insure The Healthy Life Of Your Pond With Proper Filtration




Having a koi pond is one of the most rewarding hobbies and an attractive addition to your landscape. Keeping a pond healthy requires the proper use of Koi Pond Filters. Adequate filtration is the key to having a thriving pond and healthy fish. There are many types of filtration processes. Learning which system is best for your fish pond will insure the aquatic health and long life of your pond. Filtration can take place biologically, mechanically or chemically. Mechanical filtration is the most basic filtration and is required to remove debris and waste from a pond.

Mechanical filtration literally traps objects in a pond that collect on the surface and at the bottom of a pond. Koi Pond Filters trap debris such as sticks, leaves, grasses, and fish waste by trapping the unwanted objects in baskets, skimmers, and netting. Skimmers are used to clear surface debris. Baskets and netting are used to separate the unwanted objects from the pond bottom. The separation process is essential to protecting filtration systems and pumps. A separator is often used to move objects away from the pumps, making collection and clean up easier. This is done by using a bottom drain.

There are many types of mechanical filtration systems. Barrel media filters are the most popular for pond owners who like to maintain their Koi Pond Filters themselves. A barrel filter can be homemade or purchased in a complete kit. This method can handle a lot of bacteria and can be custom fitted for a variety of pond sizes. Bead filters are a reliable method, commonly used because of their small size and easy maintenance. Gravel and sand filters are also popular choices for fish pond owners. Water is passed through a layer of gravel or sand at the bottom of the pond and returned to the surface via a pump, cleaned and clear.

Sand and gravel systems require proper cleaning and routine maintenance to prevent the plumbing system from clogging. Other steps necessary to maintaining successful Koi Pond Filters include the biological conversion of organic waste. Animals and plants create waste which has to be converted to water, cells and gases. This process is accomplished by keeping good bacteria balanced with bad bacteria. Bio-filters keep water flowing at a proper rate to cleanse water of algae and bacteria build up. By implementing these basic filtration practices, keeping a koi pond healthy is easy and enjoyable.
