Pond Myth #3: Having Rocks And Gravel Make It Difficult To Clean Your Pond.


You are susceptible to buying into this myth in Rochester, Monroe County New York (NY) if, and only if, you've never experienced pondering with rocks and gravel in your pond. If you have a smooth-bottom pond, and each season you're amazed at the amount of muck and grime that collects on the liner in the bottom, you automatically rule out rocks as a solution. You keep visualizing that same amount of muck on top of the rocks and gravel and say, "NO!" to even considering them. It's understandable. Its seems logical... until you learn the rest of the story.

A Healthy Pond Starts With Good Filtration In Brighton & Irondequoit (NY)
Rocks and gravel offer a natural place for aerobic bacteria to colonize and set up housekeeping. This bacteria breaks down and cleans the fish waste and debris that would otherwise accumulate in the pond and turn into sludge causing more pond maintenance. Regardless of your pond's location (i.e., close to trees and loads of leaves), or how many fish you have in it, you'll find that having rocks and gravel in your Rochester, Monroe County NY pond not only makes it look better, but it makes it healthier as well.

So contrary to the myth, having rocks and gravel on the bottom of your pond actually allows Mother Nature to clean up after herself, saving you headaches and hours of work cleaning your pond and trying to keep the bottom of the pond muck-free.
