There are many reasons why people like having a pond or lake on their property. From an ascetic perspective, it's a beautiful water feature. Some people stock their pond and enjoy fishing in the pond. Still others also use it to feed the livestock that roam around the property. For whatever reasons you have a pond, keeping the water clean and healthy is a top priority.

For pond water treatment, knowing the number of gallons of water, or even the approximate number, inside the pond is important. However, this can be computed by multiplying the length and width and also the depth by 7.5 and the approximate number of gallons in the pond will be known.

One easy way to keep water maintained is to use a natural product such as the AquaSpherePRO. This is a biodegradable sphere that is filled with a special mixture of bacteria that eat away at excess solids and organic matter in a pond, lake or even a smaller koi pond.

The AquaSpherePRO works and keeps the water fresh and balanced after the biodegradable spheres are tossed into the pond, the number of spheres needed depends on the approximate number of gallons in the pond. Tossing more of these spheres into the pond will not affect the overall water condition because there is no over treatment of this natural product. This product is observed not to harm people or pets and other wildlife because it is veterinarian approved.

When stocking a pond with fish, the owner will have several options, and a product that works well for your pond conditions should be selected, and this will include the depth and temperatures of the pond water yearlong. Different fish species require different water conditions and some can survive on cold temperatures and some on hot pond water temperatures.

Fish will need to be fed as well, so it is important to learn about all the aspects of having fish in your pond, including fertilizing and liming as well as harvesting. Talk to an expert about the many options available in your area and how to care for each species of fish.
