Collection: Pond aeration

Pond aeration ensures an adequate supply of oxygen for your pond inhabitants and sufficient oxygen in the pond water, thus creating an optimal habitat for your koi and fish. Fish need oxygen in the water to breathe. Without oxygen in the necessary concentration, the well-being of your fish deteriorates – in the worst case, fish die. Other pond processes, such as bacteria that convert harmful ammonia in pond water into nitrite and then nitrate, thus actively assisting in pollutant reduction, are also dependent on oxygen. Additional aeration thus prevents the accumulation of pollutants and increased algae growth. The reasons for too low an oxygen concentration in pond water, requiring the garden pond water to be enriched with additional oxygen through pond aeration, are diverse: – too few aquatic plants in the pond – too many living creatures / fish in the pond – higher water temperatures due to solar radiation reduce the dissolved oxygen content – fish are more active in summer months Pond aeration must therefore be adapted to the requirements, fish stock, and existing oxygen sources such as streams, waterfalls, etc., using pond aerators like air stones, air bars, and aeration pumps. This ensures that the oxygen concentration in your pond is sufficient and the oxygen supply for your koi and fish is secured. Optimal water quality, the breakdown of bacteria, and the prevention of algae growth are also promoted by pond aerators. By supporting the pond aerators for the pond's own processes, the pond filter is significantly relieved and can thus unleash its full performance.
