Fish Ponds and Drought: Algae, Oxygen, and Dead Fish
Drought conditions can negatively impact your fish pond, no matter how big or small it may be. Water temperatures rise and water levels drop, impacting fish, algae, and plant growth.

Springtime in Georgia may be delightful, but for pond owners, it often brings about confusion and frustration as their ponds undergo seasonal changes. One such change is the appearance of plants and other organic materials on the surface of the pond.

Farm ponds in the south almost always become stratified in the summer. Stratification occurs when the water column separates into oxygen-rich water at the surface and oxygen-poor water at the bottom separated by an abrupt transition layer called the thermocline.

While the weather loach (an Asian species also known as the dojo loach) has been documented in other states including Alabama, Florida, New York, and Oregon, this was the first recorded collection in Georgia.
