We have had a number of residents reach out to ask about pond care and fish survival over the winter months. We have sourced a couple of pieces from AquaDoc, our pond care provider, that we found interesting, and thought the other neighbors may appreciate as well. We do pull the fountains every year in the fall, which does carry a reasonable cost, but the benefit is clear in the article below. We also have had residents express concern about whether we should be feeding the fish through the winter. The article below outlines why feeding fish through the winter isn’t necessary for the fish - and may actually end up making us more susceptible to algae in the spring/summer.
