Pond Aeration
Pond Aeration is very important, and shouldn’t be overlooked or underestimated. Oxygen is something we all need to live, and introducing oxygen into a pond or filtration system is vital, especially in the warmer months of the year.

Oxygen is vital to every living thing including Koi and Beneficial Bacteria within the filtration system.
Oxygen is consumed in a pond by the inhabitants and also plant life, including algae. Algae consumes oxygen throughout the day and releases carbon dioxide at night.
Aeration introduces oxygen, it is possible to over saturate a pond with oxygen, but it’s highly unlikely.
When water temperatures reach 20°C or over Oxygen levels deplete rapidly, so it’s very important to understand the value of aeration.
