Goldfish Ponds - The Fantasy and Reality of it All
Well we finally made enough money to buy our dream home. We have already started learning how to be gardeners and soon we will have learned what we need to know about building a Goldfish pond or as some call it, a koi pond. We have seen so many koi ponds will researching. We may even be able to find someone that's giving away some of their koi fish to keep their own pond from becoming over populated.
Life In The Real World of Goldfish Ponds
Previous homes we owned were just too small and not nearly enough space to have goldfish ponds. The fact that koi fish need between one and two gallons of Water per fish in order to be healthy and happy we would only have been able to have an indoor freshwater aquarium, but we didn't. Now, if you have ever kept goldfish successfully in an aquarium then you already have the basics for keeping your goldfish in goldfish ponds happy and most importantly healthy as well.
Keeping Your Water Moving And Clean For Health Reasons
Your Koi pond is just like an aquarium and needs to be kept so that the water doesn't become stagnant or full of algae. For this reason you need to keep the water moving and filtered so you fish keep healthier. Have you ever seen how fast aquarium glass turns from clear to cloudy to green? Well you goldfish ponds will do the same thing if not maintained properly.
You don't want stressed fish as this leads to all kinds of problems and can actually kill your fish so watch for these issues and you will do well, so will your koi fish.
Overcrowding - Too many fish, remember they need from 1 to 2 gallons of clean healthy water each.
Poor water conditions - Would you like to live in a polluted home?
Addition of new fish - Make sure your new fish are free from disease and keep in mind the water and space your goldfish need.
Disease - Keep you pond clean
Not enough oxygen in the water - aerate the water
Being transported - This can cause major stress in your fish, so do it as little as possible.
Remember, You're Not Alone In This
Keeping Koi or Goldfish ponds is definitely has a learning curve which usually means you will make a mistake or two, it's normal and you're not alone. There are hundreds of Koi pond clubs, magazines and books and don't forget all the web sites with helpful information on Koi Ponds.
We have never had a local fish show but check it out in your town or city as you may find more support than you know.
Usually, if a pet shop has healthy fish you will find someone that knows what they are doing so ask them questions that are on your mind, I am sure they will help you. After all they want you to succeed as well.
Finding information on the maintenance of goldfish ponds used to be tough but today with so many Goldfish pond owners and web sites you should have no problems as long as you do your home work first and not waiting until there is a problem.
