Little Pond

Is it better to be a big fish in a little pond or should one swim over to the sea side?
This question is tricky. I guess it depends on the opportunities within the pond and how much you would stand out if you swam out to sea.
A little pond can offer you the instant gratification some people need. It is a smaller, closer envirionment that allows you to stand out and be recognized, but opportunities are usually limited in a small pond.
At sea, you will be one of many, who will need to be recognized as above average in almost everything you do. There is obviously more competition and competitors don't always play fair. There will be more rules and structure that many get in the way of your personal ambitions but there are also more opportunities ahead.
You are the only one who can answer that for yourself. My only advice is that sometimes it is easier to get your career started in the pond and than move on to the sea once you have exhausted your opportunities.

Thermo Pond Heater $14.99 The World’s only energy efficient pond heater! Thermo-Pond is a unique patented pond heater that keeps a hole through the ice in backyard ponds for just pennies a day. In fact, Thermo-Pond can save up to $30.00 a month in electricity! Just think, Thermo-Pond pays for itself in as little as 2 months. That’s important, especially with today’s soaring energy prices and in some cases, shortages. Thermo-Pond floats on top of the water and is thermostatically controlled to never get hot. Unlike some other heaters, Thermo-Pond will never burn a pond liner or plastic pond. It naturally allows the pond to ice over while maintaining a hole through the ice. The hole in the top of the Thermo-Pond helps allow toxic gasses to escape all winter long. Allowing that gas exchange can help keep a healthier environment during the winter months Thermo-Pond should be used in ponds that are deep enough to allow plenty of livable water under the iced portion of the pond. Thermo-Pond has been tested in the Northwoods of Wisconsin at temperatures dipping down past 30? below Zero Fahrenheit. UL and CUL listed. |

Koi Pond Filter - Save Them From Themselves
A biological Koi pond filter saves precious Koi from themselves. Let's face it, Koi eat like there's no tomorrow. All that eating, in a garden pond environment, makes for a dynamic living, swimming, eating biological hazard machine. The mounting waste Koi produce amounts to rising levels of toxic compounds in the water, the most common being ammonia and nitrate. It's not such a big deal when the levels of these toxins are kept under control. However, a spike in ammonia or nitrate levels in the pond water could kill your Koi. In the wild, this process is taken care of by either the sheer volume of water, and/or the current of moving water taking waste particles along with it. In a garden pond setting, we need to supply this process mechanically.
When entering the market for a Koi pond filter be sure to consider the fish first, not the price. If your Koi's health is of importance to you, then you will want to take every measure to ensure their quality and longevity of life. Clean water is not only a key to their survival, but also a key to your peace of mind. Let's face it; the cute little fishes need you. They are living beings that will depend on you to look after them for the life they spend in the pond environment you establish for them. Wow... how's that for a reality check?
The Koi pond filter has much to do in continuously maintaining the cleanliness of the pond water. Consider the number of fish you are intending to keep in your pond, along with how large or small the pond is itself. Koi are voracious eaters, and in turn they produce a substantial amount of waste. Because of their avid appetites, Koi also have a tendency to grow very large and very fast depending on the circumstances. Facts such as these need to be understood when keeping Koi, especially if you plan on adding more fish to the pond at a later date. A solid, reliable biological Koi pond filter is a necessity, and should be looked upon as a predominant link in the lifeline you supply them.
It is a good idea to take your time in understanding pond filtration, as this will give you some insight into what your role will be in terms of pond filter maintenance and up keep. Explore your options with a specialist at your local pet store, or with a reputable Kio pond expert who will assist you in configuring the right pond filtration system for your specific requirements. As with many things, there are countless brands, makes and models of Koi pond filter to choose from. Getting your head around it all can seem quite daunting on the outset, especially when you will be factoring in what pond pump and other equipment to use along with the filter. However, getting your figures and information together before hand can help alleviate much of the uncertainty when deciding on which pond filter to go with. It can not be stated enough that cutting corners on filtering equipment up front could cost you dearly further down the road if you loose some or even all of your beautiful Koi fish. It is wise to agree that money and frustration are saved when you take pride in making the right decision on installing a Koi pond filter system right the first time. Yes, it costs a little more to buy the best... but aren't they worth it?
