Hey guys, I do have a pond at my place..but the problem is, the water will turn into greenish in color within a week and some slime particles will start to form at the bottom of the pond. In the end, I will end up washing the pond on a weekly basis, but it gets time consuming as its 7ftx7ft. Any suggestion on what I should do?.
p/s: I only have water pump installed in it, no filter. |

QUOTE(niaochu @ Jan 4 2018, 10:44 AM) without filter ? think that's the problem and also if it's exposed to sun .. i'm guessing u'll need a UV light to kill the algae... Thanks for your advice. Any idea where I can purchase these 2 equipment from? (e.g pet shop, hardware, etc) |

QUOTE(thahirah @ Jan 4 2018, 03:04 PM) Just buy the canister type filter, it has built in UV. Thanks for the advice, appreciate it!. Will work on getting it soon.One advise you need to size your pump for that canister filter, if you oversize your pump it will start leaking. And after the water becomes clear, please dont start adding fish, thats where the problem will start. |
