Avoiding fish overload...

image 2

The general, foolproof, no-brainer rule for fish load is one inch of fish per one square-foot of pond surface area. This calculation works in setting where you have these four key pieces:

- Rocks and gravel on the bottom of your pond.

- Proper mechanical filtration, which includes a skimmer.

- The use of a quality biological filter such as Aquascape Designs' BIOFALLS® filter.

- A good supply of aquatic plants.

If your pond is missing just one of these pieces, you should cut the formula in half just to be safe.
