4 Factors to Consider First Before Doing Earthwork on a Fish Pond

  A complete villa courtyard landscape usually consists of rockery, ponds, barges, pavilions, shrubs, turf, stone, preserved wood, paving and other elements; reasonable use of these materials can not only create a pleasing landscape can also fully utilize the functionality of the courtyard. On the contrary, many courtyard design failures lead to owners can only re-planning. Today to analyze the patio fish pond civil construction should be taken into account before the attention.

A superbly designed fish pond not only looks beautiful, but also saves effort when used. Whether it is the designer, the developer, or the homeowner, the first thing you should be clear about is: the purpose and function of building a pond, to keep fish or not to keep fish? What quality of fish? What kind of landscape effect is expected to achieve? What is the budget?

I. The environment for keeping koi in the pool:

According to one's pre-budget and wishes, the civil engineering part is put in place as much as possible at once. This approach not only saves costs and effort in the construction of the fish pond, but also prevents diseases, deaths and economic losses due to environmental discomfort.

Second, the choice of the location of the fish pond:

1. Sunlight: Places with full sunlight are preferred.

2. Underground part: If the fish pond has a part of the excavation, but also to explore the fish pond is located in the part of the underground pipeline layer, cables, pipeline maintenance, etc.. It is best to avoid these parts of the pool.

3. Feng Shui: When choosing a location, those who believe in feng shui should also choose at the feng shui level.

4. Filtration: When choosing the location, the location of the filter should be planned, if the filter pool is built, is there enough space? If the integrated filter is installed, should the pipeline be pre-buried?

5. Water and sewage: When choosing a location, consider whether water and sewage are convenient and whether the pipeline is easy to arrange?

Generally according to the direction of the courtyard to choose the location of the fish pond, it is best to welcome the light and avoid the shade as the first consideration, if the fish pond is selected in the place where the sun does not rise, then it is difficult to grow aquatic plants. If the ornamental fish (especially koi), the fish will not see the sun for a long time will affect the color, feed more nutrients will not have any effect, especially the red and yellow have a greater impact. Secondly, the fish pond is already full of water vapor, the shade will make the surrounding environment more humid.

Third, the depth of the fish pond:

Most of the fish pond in the courtyard for koi fish pond, build too shallow to affect the growth of fish, and in the north is not good for the winter; too deep is not good security, the previous section of the news there is a nanny fell into the koi fish pond drowning. It is recommended that a reasonable depth of 70-150CM is preferred, neither worry about the temperature for fear of the fish grow big nor affect the safety.

IV. Design of the fishpond filtration system:

Encountered a lot of pre-designed reasonable filtration system of the fish pond, the owner found me when the first complaint, from the construction of the fish pond to the moment, non-stop in the toss, the traditional drug filtration, constantly cleaning the fish pond, and finally still encountered the following problems, a large number of fish deaths, the water is dirty and smelly, full of green algae moss, and finally the pond dry dry to fill up without using it.

First, a brief introduction to the classification of the fish pond filter, the traditional plastic fish pond filter (internal filter cotton based), stainless steel fish pond filter (suspension cartridge, nano-filter cartridge based), sand tank filtration (the filter material is generally quartz sand, mainly used for fish ponds).

Choose which filtration method forCirculation and filtration systems for fish pondsThe steps are as follows:

1, analyze the environment around the fish pond, if the space is small and not afraid of noise, you can choose the drip flow.

2, if the space is limited, and afraid of noise, choose an integrated filter (recommended Ollies stainless steel high-end integrated intelligent fish pond filter, filtration, purification, sterilization, oxygenation, circulation, a machine to solve all the problems).

3, the form of filtration: a good filtration system, there must be adequate physical filtration space;

4, biochemical silo has sufficient dissolved oxygen, cleaning and maintenance is very convenient, the appearance as beautiful as possible.

Under these 4 principles, various forms can be freely designed. If it is found that the current location of the fish pond can not make filtration to meet the above 4 requirements, then it is recommended to choose the integrated stainless steel filter; Ollies eco-integrated intelligent filter: high-end 304 stainless steel, small footprint, easy and convenient to install and maintain, low energy consumption, most of the fish pond filters only need a very small place to be able to accommodate, compared to traditional filtration pools, it is much easier.
