AquaMats for ornamental ponds provide 3 main features:
"In pond" filtration (each AquaMat has a surface area of over 5,000 square feet. That's the size of a tennis court!)
Aquatic habitat and structure
Natural food production
AquaMats® provide "in pond" filtration and are ideal for ponds that struggle to maintain acceptable water clarity. Within weeks of introducing AquaMats® to a problem pond, water clarity increases dramatically as biological activity from phytoplankton (which obscures water clarity) is suppressed in place of natural food product on AquaMats® surfaces. AquaMats® will continue to enhance and improve water health and clarity for years.
AquaMats® enhance and stabilize water clarity by:
Controlling build up of toxins like nitrites and ammonia
Increasing dissolved oxygen levels
Provides a "safety net" against failure or interruption of mechanical systems
Reducing the load on existing biofiltration systems and drastically increase the biofiltration of your pond.
AquaMats® provide aquatic habitat and structure. Ornamental pond fish like Koi and goldfish quickly come to rely on AquaMats® as their preferred place for shelter and play. In addition to valuable shelter, AquaMats® provide shade during most of the day. They may be contoured to the shape and depth of the pond (they're easy to cut) to provide optimal cover. You can easily move them throughout the year to adjust for plant growth or move to a shape or location of your liking.
AquaMats® also provide natural food production for your precious fish. As the AquaMats® mature in the pond, they provide a regenerative natural food supplement which benefits both fish and desirable aquatic plants. For fish, the growth supported directly on the surface of the AquaMats® provides a full compliment of micro-nutrients and vitamins for nutrition, growth and disease resistance. Plants will benefit from the shedding of mature biomass from the AquaMats® which acts to insulate against disease. Fish reared on AquaMats® enjoy improved health from better nutrition and lower stress levels.
