Fish need water quality to
survive, grow, and reproduce.
Quality water has no
pollutants, is high in dissolved
oxygen, and does not have
excessive organic matter. Fencing a pond is needed to
prevent livestock from
trampling pond banks, which
causes pond shallowing, muddy
water, and loss of fish. Fences
should be 50 to 100 feet from the pond bank and completely
enclose the pond. A vegetated
border is needed at least 50 feet
wide that will reduce soil
erosion and the amount of
fertilizer and pesticides entering the pond. Trees along
the shore line are desirable for
shading and nutrient uptake.
Water clarity should be at least
18 inches through out the year
and is necessary for plankton production. For help and consultancy call 08032861326.
