Electric Ponds
take in excess nutrients over time from fertilizers, animal and fish
wastes, decomposing debris (leaves, branches) etc.
These nutrients are a food source for unsightly algae and weed
growth. Buildup of nutrient
rich sludge on the pond bottom causes nutrient cycling in an oxygen
deprived environment, making the problem worse.
Algae blooms cause off flavored fish, and algae dye offs can cause
oxygen crashes that lead to fish kills.
Aeration
provides vital oxygen right through the water column.
Beneficial bacteria break down nutrients and sludge 80 times faster
in an oxygen rich environment. Nutrient
cycling is stopped and algae and weeds are starved of the food they need,
providing clearer water, higher oxygen levels, and better tasting fish.
An airline can easily be run 1500 ft from the compressor to the
pond. See below for an example. These
Economical Aeration Systems are great for the do-it-yourself install.
They offer a more cost effective alternative to higher end systems.
