Ask Mr. Fix it

While water gardens and ponds are always a delight to sit beside, understanding how to keeping them clean is a challenge that every water garden owner must keep up with. There is a truism in the water gardening world that says “we don’t keep fish, but rather water.” Anyone who has a water pond fully appreciates this bit of wisdom.

Water treatment test kits such as PondCare Salt Level Test Kit can help ensure that your water garden enjoys the right balance to maintain life for both koi fish, and your plants.

Knowing the volume of your pond will help you ensure you apply the correct amount of treatment when needed.

So enjoy your pond, but remember that consistent testing of your water garden will help ensure that you can continue to enjoy it for years to come.
