Anachris (Elodea Densa)
The Anacharis, also known as the Brazilian Waterweed, is an ideal pond plant for beginners. Beautiful light to bright green fern-like leaves, with branching stems covered in bunches of linear, whorled leaves help oxygenate and clarify the water and reduce algae growth. The Anacharis anchors itself in the substrate by its roots, but will also grow when floating freely.  The Anacharis is an excellent for all types of ponds and is great for providing shade, cover and spawning material for pond fish. Propagate by removing cuttings from mature, healthy plants. The Anacharis looks best when planted in groups. Can be placed in small pots on the bottom of the pond. Can spread 12-24".

Parrot's Feather (myriophyllum aquaticum)

No pond is complete unless it contains Parrots feather. It will add oxygen to the water and help fight off algae growth by consuming all of the excess nutrients. They also provide a spawning area for the fish and providing a hiding spot for baby fry. Parrots feather can be either potted or allowed to float on top of the water where it adds an air of softness to the pond. It is very easy to grow in the pond either way. I have it both floating and potted in all of my water gardens. As a potted plant, it can have 3 to 12" of water over the top of the pot. If you prefer to have it floating in your pond simply pinch off a tip of a plant and throw it in the water. It will grow roots in a very short period of time. The roots will grow down in the water and the top growth will billow out across the water.

Fritz pH Lower

Few pond hobbyists worry enough about low pH, but as the pond ages, pH naturally falls to dangerous levels. This is caused by acid produced by the breakdown of organic material. As pH falls, nitrifying bacteria living in the bio-filter stop multiplying and eventually die off. The result is severe water quality problems, fish stress, cloudy water, odor and fish loss. The pond slowly acidifies and sulfur-like smells ensue. Fritz Pond pH Higher combats this deadly downward spiral by increasing the pH & alkalinity. Test pH once per week. If the pH falls below 6.8, add 2 capfuls of Pond PH Higher per 50 gallons. Wait 20 minutes; retest pond. Retreat until pH is 7.0-7.6. Never increase pH if ammonia is present.  16oz. bottle

Kent Marine Clorinex

During hot summer months, water departments use heavy amounts of chlorine to kill bacteria. Unfortunately, hot summer months also cause increased evaporation in the pond. Use two to four times the recommended amount of Kent Chlorinex if you can smell the chlorine from your tap!  When first starting a new pond or introducing new animals, it is a good practice to use Kent Pro•Tech Coat to provide stress relief and guard against parasites.                   16 oz.

Kent Marine Ammonia Detox

Kent Ammonia Detox automatically neutralizes chloramines, ammonia, or chlorine, in any combination, to make tap water immediately safe to use for fish and plants. Use when starting a new pond, adding water for evaporation, making water changes, or adding new fish. Ammonia Detox is safe to use directly in all water gardens and ponds to neutralize toxic ammonia, which can develop due to overcrowding or adding too many fish at once. Should the biological filter get damaged, Kent Ammonia Detox will give the bacteria time to multiply and recover, while keeping the fish from being stressed. In many areas, water departments are using chloramines, a complex of chlorine and ammonia to prolong the chlorine action in killing bacteria. If chloramine is present, Ammonia Detox will neutralize it, making the water safe for aquatic animals. No other treatment is required.
