What's The Best Way to Keep Your Pond Clean This Fall

One of the most successful ways to keep your pond clean in the fall is to maintain a healthy level of beneficial bacteria and keep it free of decaying debris. I have found that Microbelift Autumn/Winter prep is a bacteria that can withstand the colder water temperatures and helps maintain a balanced ecosystem.
Sludge Away by Microbelift is another product that will help break down decomposing leaves and debris. Pease feel free to comment with any Fall Tips you might have come up with that will help other pond owners.

Ponds should have an area that is at least 24 inches deep. The whole pond does not have to be that deep, but it's great if it is. Dig deeper than 24 inches, so when you put the rock in there is still 24 inches of water.
