Fun Pond Fact

Herons love Pond Fish! They are colorful, easy to see, easy to catch and have limited escape opportunities!
The good news is that we know Heron's are very territorial
and once ONE has his eye on your Pond, the others will stay away.

Heron Decoys are a great way to keep Herons from fishing in YOUR Pond!

Fun Pond Fact

The fat in a Koi's body can get so cold and stiff that
they may swim in some really strange positions (on their side, head down, etc),
but once the water warms up this condition usually cures itself.

The Cyprio Affair

Hozelock Cyprio, for many years one of the largest Garden Pond Equipment Manufacturers,
ended their North American operations last year.
This presents a large problem for many pond owners,
because replacement parts will no longer be available
(with the exception of UV bulbs).
Please read DETAILS HERE

The PondMarket has decided that Cyprio Pond Equipment owners need some help,
and for a limited time, we will make the following offer:
We will help to replace Cyprio Filters with Tetra Filters and have,
for a limited time DRASTICALLY reduced Tetra Filter prices for this purpose.

This is a VERY LIMITED TIME OFFER and can be found HERE

Gear up for Spring!

Spring will be here sooner than you think.
Now is the time to get your Test Kits,
Skimmer Nets, Filter Material,Beneficial Bacteria, & More!

Testing your water (for Ammonia, pH, etc.) and making sure everything is balanced
will make life easier in the summer time and prevent
future problems during the year.

Once the warm weather hits dead leaves and other debris should be removed from the Fish Pond.
Using a Skimmer Net or a Pond Vacuum will make maintenance less of a hassel.

Worn down Filter Material will need to be changed out as well.

Replacing UV Bulbs is important, too!
No one likes their Fish Pond looking like pea soup.

Spring & Summer Bacteria will help kick start your Fish Pond.
The Beneficial Bacteria will keep the Pond clean and help get rid of any organic debris you might have missed.

Spring is on the way.
Will you be ready?
