The care of your garden pond depends on the season. In spring you have other jobs than in autumn. But what needs doing in summer?

If you take proper action now, by reducing the nutrient input and the existing nutrient sources, you can prevent algae problems in the coming year.

Maybe you’ve felt like this: nothing works, the pond looks disastrous and you just don’t know what to do.

Die Sonne knallt auf den Teich und Sie füllen täglich Wasser nach? An manchen Tagen fragt man sich, „ist das wirklich normal und nur die Verdunstung“?

Ask us your technical question and we’ll answer your question in the comments with our team of experts.

Is your pond clear – with no algae in sight? Perhaps you were just lucky or you have completed an algae treatment successfully. In either case there’s one thing you don’t need: algae!

A JBL community member contacted us with following question: ”The KH in my pond is very high (e.g. 18 °dKH). The dilution through rainwater alone is not enough to solve this problem. Can this be harmful for koi and goldfish in the long run?"

Cat and dog owners know this well. A treat here, a toy there and small gifts for the pets. But what’s the best and safest way to pamper your fish with a few extras?

A lot of pond owners neglect their regular maintenance and only react when problems occur and it’s often too late.

Water changes have several additional benefits: potentially dangerous substances, such as nitrates and phosphates, are removed from my pond, minerals are added, and any colour cast in the water is reduced.

The most annoying thing about autumn and winter is RAIN! Even if there are occasional spells of fine weather, those seasons are characterised by frequent rainfall. And our ponds lie exposed to it.

A few algae in the pond do not pose a problem and even form a component of a healthy pond. But once the water turns green or „blanket weed“ algae become rampant, you then have a problem which needs fixing. Effective and longterm algae control consists of three steps.

While the title of the well-known book series may suggest the opposite, these books are actually full of excellent explanations for complicated facts. And that’s exactly what we also want to try and do, because the subject of water test/water chemistry puts a lot of people off.

Spring, summer, autumn and winter. For each season there is a different maintenance to follow and various aspects to consider.

It’s a hard life for a pond: It is exposed to all weather conditions, it gets unwanted rainwater and it has to digest leaves, flower pollen and any particulate matter that enters.

It can affect every pond owner. But if you are careful you can avert problems before they occur. In the following article we would like to introduce you to the different types of algae you may meet in the garden pond:

Сегодня хотелось бы вам сообщить, какие рыбы содержатся на объектах наших дилеров. Поскольку наши кои прибывают из Японии очень голодными, в первую очередь обязанность наших дилеров - поместить прибывших в карантин, где в первую очередь проверяют общее состояние здоровья.

Для всех тех, кто не следил или не посетил нас там, вот небольшая история успеха нашей поездки в Японию.

I have talked about KH and pH with a lot of koi dealers, experts and professionals in the past few weeks.

The water in your aquarium is outstandingly significant because it is a life-giving element for fish and plants.

Professional water analysis sounds very expensive. But the professional water testing in your aquarium or pond at home also works on a high level and above all it is simple and inexpensive.

The water level can drop by up to several centimetres a day. This means it has to be refilled once a week at the latest.

There has been plenty of heavy rainfall in Germany in the last few days. The ponds are full to the brim and the garden - and more - is under water.

Kaum ein Thema ist aktuell präsenter als der starke Regen. Überschwemmungen sind in ganz Deutschland ein Thema. Auch für Ihren Teich bedeutet der Regen eine große Veränderung. Durch die Verdünnung mit Regenwasser sinkt die Karbonathärte des Teichwassers.

We are constantly being asked by pond owners for advice about how to deal with the problem of algae carpets on the water surface.

The flowers are blooming and the allergy sufferers know it only too well: the pollen count! We can see the powdery yellow coating on our cars and on the forest paths. The pollen count and small leaves are floating through the air and reaching our ponds in huge amounts.

Many pond owners don’t realise this. That’s why they don’t react to algae growth until it’s too late. This is not only annoying, it makes it harder to achieve clear water for your dream landscape.

In the time period before Easter there can be rainfall of 40 to 60 litres per square metre. We would like to explain why this can become an acid test for your pond and possibly also a problem for your fish.

Pond owners need to start preparing their ponds in autumn for the coming winter. Only by doing this can you be sure that your pond will continue to bring you pleasure next year and that your fish will be healthy.

As a pond owner in autumn you not only have to deal with getting the pond ready for winter, you also have to struggle with heavy and frequent rainfalls.

It’s getting cold slowly and the pond season is coming to its end. The leaves of the water lilies are dying and the sunshine hours are getting shorter. But in the pond there is still a lot happening. We will show you how to make your pond fit for the winter.

It happens every year. The algae arrive. What can you do to prevent it? For a healthy basis the pond needs to be filled with sufficient plant mass. This applies to ALL ponds.

In the garden pond the pH rises to over 10 if the carbonate hardness is insufficient or non-existent. In unbuffered ponds the pH level can even fluctuate up to 4 pH value levels within one day.

Everyone knows this scenario. Just last week the pond was alright, then suddenly the algae came overnight. Why does this happen? It’s really very simple. You only have to keep in mind 2 factors.
