Everyone could have a wonderful pond if they are prepared to spend a little time and effort on the basics of pond care. By following these steps you should end up with the results you are looking for.
Ensure your pond is correctly positioned so as to avoid runoff from your garden. This could prove fatal to your fish as fertilizers and other harmful chemicals could be washed into your pond. Also in sever weather your pond could actually flood.
Plan your pond carefully. If you are looking to revamp an existing pond you would probably be best to empty it and start all over again. If there is any wildlife in your pond remove it and keep it in a tank for a few days until you have completed the renovation.
Make sure you have a good balance of different fish and plants this will enable the pond to form its own ecosystem that should run itself. If you want to add more fish to the pond consider the use of a filter.
