How often should I clean my biological pond filter?
We recommend cleaning out the biofall (biological) pond filters 3 times a year. You can have it done during spring clean-out, the fall service process, and winter maintenance. You’ll have to clean them if they clog, which is rare. Clean out the skimmer filters that catch debris at least once per week.
Are pond pressure filters any good?
Pressure filters can produce very clean, clear water as the water is forced through the media and can’t bypass via an easier route, but they can block if not cleaned regularly, and flow through the pond will reduce.
Can you over filter a koi pond?
The size of your filter should ideally be based on the Koi population and how much waste they are expected to produce. But it is not easy to see the waste volume; so just go at least twice as big as your pond size. You can never oversize your filter.
Do pond pumps use a lot of electricity?
Pond pumps have become much more efficient over the past twenty years, but a fair amount of power will always be required to move substantial volumes of water. As a guide, electric costs for: A small spouting frog ornament (9w) — 4p per day. The very smallest in-pond filter/UV system (18w) — 8p per day.
Can you have too much oxygen in a fish pond?
In a typical pond you could not have too much aeration, in certain circumstances you can get what’s called ‘super saturation’ which can be very dangerous to fish. In a traditional garden pond you may have a waterfall and some oxygenating plants, as these may add enough oxygen into the water.
