Does chlorine kill frogs?

• <div><p>Because frogs require fresh water for survival, they can die from repeated exposure to swimming pool chemicals. Chlorine dehydrates frogs, which can lead to their deaths. To ensure frogs don’t hang out in your pool for long periods, safely remove them once you spot them in your pool and install a frog log so they can easily hop out on their own.</p></div>

Q: Should a koi pond be in the sun or shade?

• <div><p>Koi fish should be in the shade and can&rsquo;t be directly exposed to the sun. Consider building your koi pond in a shaded spot or hanging an awning over the top to control the amount of sunlight coming in. Learn <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-develop-landscaping-plan-your-yard.htm">how to design a landscape</a> properly.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a seep and a spring?

• <div><p>Seeps and springs form when groundwater reaches the earth&rsquo;s surface. The main differences between them are the amount of water and the flow rate. Seeps are smaller than springs and consist of water that&rsquo;s stagnant or flows slowly. Springs contain more water and flow more quickly.</p></div>

Q: Can I install a pond myself?

• <div><p>DIY kits exist, but professional installation ensures proper filtration, landscaping, and leak-proof construction.</p></div>

Q: How often should I change koi pond water?

• <div><p>A good rule of thumb is to change 5% to 15% of your koi pon&rsquo;s water every week. Partial water changes help keep your koi healthy, and replacing small amounts at a time prevents causing stress for the fish.</p></div>
