Spring - summer - autumn and winter
Here’s how to maintain your pond through all the seasons of the year
The seasons vary significantly on our planet. In countries situated in the north and in the south of the southern hemisphere seasons also mean different temperatures. And precisely that is crucial for the fish nutrition!

Generally the seasons in Mediterranean regions don’t differ significantly to those in the temperate climate zones, except that the summers are much warmer and drier (winter rainfall areas) and in winter periods of heavy frosts are quite rare. The most important differences concern the summer and winter months.
Tropics and desert countries
In these countries, seasons look different than in Central Europe. They are usually divided roughly into the rainy season and the dry season.
