Understanding Water Quality Parameters

Proper water preparation for the pond is just the beginning. The proper balance of the ecosystem should be constantly taken care of. Appropriate water parameters and environmental conditions are necessary to maintain the biological balance in a pond. A pond is an artificial reservoir that requires special care. The water parameters are influenced by many external and internal factors, such as rainfall, changing part of the water with untreated tap water, sunlight, falling leaves, too many fish in the tank, overfeeding or even inadequate installation of technical devices. They are responsible for a number of biological and chemical processes that cause changes in water quality.

That is why it is so important to regularly test (about once every two weeks) and to check the water parameters in the pond, as well as to check the water that we intend to add to the tank. The water quality can be quickly and easily checked with the use of test strips that allow you to check the most important water parameters in seconds.
