Pond Essentials — Food, Water Care & Clarity

Keep koi and goldfish thriving with a simple, reliable routine. This collection brings together pond foods, water conditioners, algae & clarity aids, test kits and aeration—everything you need for clear water and healthy fish.

What you’ll find

• Daily pond foods: Floating sticks, multi-mix blends and seasonal options for steady energy and colour.
• Water prep: Tap-water conditioners to neutralise chlorine/chloramine and protect gills and slime coat.
• Algae & clarity: Targeted algae control plus water clarifiers to bind fine particles for crystal-clear ponds.
• Stability helpers: pH/kh support and nutrient reducers to keep parameters in the comfort zone.
• Testing: pH, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate tests to catch issues early.
• Aeration & hardware: Airstones and accessories that boost oxygen and circulation.

Quick seasonal guide

• Warm months: Feed small portions 1–2× daily; strengthen filtration and aeration; manage algae proactively.
• Cooler months: Reduce portions as fish slow down; monitor parameters; keep water well-oxygenated.

Simple care routine

1. Condition new water before it enters the pond (after top-ups or water changes).
2. Test weekly (pH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate) and adjust maintenance based on results.
3. Control nutrients to limit algae: skim debris, clean filters, and dose clarifier/algae control as directed.
4. Feed little & often—only what fish finish in a few minutes; remove uneaten food.
5. Boost oxygen with aeration, especially during hot weather or when treating the pond.

Tips for clear, healthy water

• Rinse filter media in pond water (not tap) to preserve beneficial bacteria.
• Shade part of the pond and add plants to compete with algae for nutrients.
• Store foods and treatments cool, dry and sealed; follow label directions precisely.

Use filters to choose by function, pond size and price. Add a staple food, water conditioner, test kit and (if needed) algae/clarity support—then enjoy brighter fish and clearer water with less fuss.
