Easy Ways To Keep A Pond Clean & Fresh Naturally

By Roland Stockwell


For those lucky ones who have an expansive property which features a pond, lake or other dominant water feature, ensuring that your water is clean is a top priority. This doesn't need to be a full-time job. There are many ways to keep your water fresh, safe and clean naturally.

Each season brings with it some challenges. For example, in Autumn, you will need to ensure that your pond is not over-run with falling leaves. This can cause the water conditions to change and become harmful for fish. During warmer months, you need to ensure that excess algae and weeds do not accumulate.

One easy way to keep water clean from excess algae and other harmful build-up is to use a product such as the AquaSpherePRO, which uses helpful bacteria to keep water clean. The bacteria are located inside the biodegradable sphere, and you simply toss the sphere into your pond. It immediately begins working to keep the water clean and clear. The sphere contains no harmful chemicals and has been approved as safe for all wildlife and pets by veterinarians.

There are several different sizes of spheres, including spheres that treat up to 50,000 gallons, 250,000 gallons and even 500,000 gallons. There are also smaller AquaSpheres for water features, such as a beautiful koi pond. If you have a larger body of water than 500,000 gallons, simply add an extra sphere to accommodate for the size. Each sphere will treat the water for 30 days, so each month all you have to do is toss in another AquaSpherePro. You cannot over-treat so don't worry if you have slightly more sphere than you need.

As you get closer to the warm summer months or if your water already has an excess of organic build-up, you might want to consider adding a product such as Blast to your water. This item dissolves instantly upon contact with the water and begins reducing harmful organic matter. It contains no harmful chemicals and uses only helpful bacteria to keep water clean. You can also use this along with the AquaSpherePRO for optimum effect.

If you wish to make your water appear more beautiful and sparkling, consider using the SePRO Natural Reflection product. This item uses non-toxic, water-soluble black dyes to decrease the amount of ultra-violet penetration in the water, and it creates a pleasing blue/black color. If you would prefer a hue that is more aquamarine, you can opt for the SePRO Blue product, which uses a different mix of non-toxic dyes that also reduce sunlight penetration.
