"Tim from Timâ s aquascape was so knowledgeable and respectful. I was a little taken aback when him and his employees showed up because I was not expecting them to be so young. But let me tell you donâ t let that fool you. I was so incredibly impressed with how hard they worked. They stayed each day for 10 hours! I could not believe the dedication and perfectionism that went into the custom koi pond they built for us. Since completing our project Tim even followed up with us and we have since signed up for him to do our bi-weekly maintenance to help keep our pond as beautiful as the day they finished it."

Algae growth is a common issue for misters, but you can do several things to prevent it. First, use a sealed water tank with distilled or filtered water to fuel your misters. Second, blow out the misters after every use so no water is left in the tubing. Third, thoroughly clean the misting system every several weeks of use at minimum during the warmest months. Third, wherever possible positioning tubing and the water tank away from direct sunlight and in the coolest areas possible.
One reason you may want to fill in your pond is the cost of maintenance. Pond cleaning may cost about $1,000 for an annual cleanup, or monthly visits may cost $75 to $100 per visit. If you don’t want to spend that much per year on pond upkeep, you may consider filling in your pond.
When deep cleaning your koi pond, transfer fish to a clean, uncontaminated container at least one foot deep, like a large bucket, tub, or kiddie pond. Fill the container with their existing pond water to avoid shocking them, and place the container in full or partial shade. When it’s time to reintroduce them into the pond, slowly add the new water to the container before adding the fish and container water back into the pond.
Though there are a lot of factors that go into caring for a koi pond, the most important maintenance you can do is frequent water checks using a koi pond test strip that checks the water for dangerous conditions. In addition to regular pond maintenance costs, you’ll also need to winterize your koi pond if you live in a colder area.
