The breeding of koi first became popular
in 19th century Japan. The beautiful
fish can live 15 or 20 years in a wellmaintained
pond and can grow quite
large. On the coast, herons are a big
danger to koi, and Pond Elegance can
show pond owners how to string fishing
line over ponds for protection.
A healthy pond includes natural bacteria. To help regulate the growth of good bacteria, Pond
Elegance recommends regular treatment with Microblift, which helps clarify the water and create a
natural environment for plants and fish.
