AAA AQUATICS

Pro-fish-ional cover all aspects of pond maintenance, no project too large or small. To keep your pond in great condition it needs regular monthly maintenance and an annual clean out. Pro-fish-ional covers both these aspects if needed. Monthly: Cleaning out filtration units. Checking water quality levels. Changing UV bulbs when necessary. Clearing string algae (blanketweed) and tidying plants. Changing UVC tube/bulb in early spring. Checking livestock for disease.

Annually: Draining pond and moving livestock (fish frogs and other wildlife) to a holding receptacle until pond is ready for their return. All plants removed and cutback or repotted if needed. Fertiliser tablets are planted in the pot in the spring to aid growth. Pond and edges cleaned with pressure washer (don't do this at home as this needs a gentle touch and a knowledge of pond liner strengths is needed) All sludge removed and spread on flowerbeds if allowed as it makes great fertiliser. Filters, uvcs pumps ect are all stripped down and cleaned. Reccomendations given if equipment is old or not up to the job. Pondguy also specialise in Aquarium maintenance. pondguy cover all aspects of renovating, cleaning, moving, rehomeing, restocking and equipping Aquarium's.

For a aquarium to look its best it needs regular maintenance. pondguy carry out work on a time table based on what a Aquarium needs, large messy fish need more work as do smaller Aquariums. Regular maintenance could include. Water changes, the amount depends on type of fish, intervals of cleaning and size of tank. Filter cleaning, If filter systems become blocked many stop functioning altogether or just pump dirty water around the tank with out any purification. Glass cleaning, this is purely aesthetic as the fish prefer the algae cover but why have a tank you cant see into. Checking of the lights. Most lighting tubes only last about 8 months and once past this can cause algae and alter the ambient colour of the Aquarium.
