Filtering Pond Water
To maintain good water clarity and a safe environment for sh, the pond water requires a combination
of the follo wing features:
1. Mechanic al Filtratio n
2. Biologic al ltration
3. U.V. Sterilisation
4. Good circu lation
5. Aeration
In simple terms, the ‘mechanical ltration’ is basically straining the water, se parating the s olids
from the liquid. The solid matter in a po nd is usually mad e up from different form s of debris, whic h
maybe f ound at any level in th e water. The presence of these solids and suspended particles will
make the p ond w ater appear murky or cloudy, mak ing i t dif cult for visual inspectio n of the sh.
The water clar ity may not ne cessarily be a problem to the sh, provided th e debris and s uspended
solids are of a non-harmful nature.
