Discover the different types of accessories for ponds

Ponds can be a beautiful addition to any outdoor space. However, you need the right pond accessories to build a truly stunning feature. We have a large selection of pond accessories to help you create your dream water feature. Below, we look at the most common accessories you need to build a pond.

Pond liner

A pond liner is an impermeable membrane you lay on the bottom and walls of your pond to prevent water from sipping into the soil. Our collection includes a range of tear-proof liners to keep your pond waterproof. We also have pond liners coated with natural sand to give your pond that natural look. These are great for hiding unpleasant film edges in your pond.

Pond pump

The pump is the heart of your pond, working tirelessly to move water through the filtration unit or waterfall. Therefore, you need to invest in a high-quality pump to ensure your pond ecosystem functions properly. We have a range of well-built pond pumps to keep your pond healthy. Our solar water pumps are ideal for homeowners who want to save on electricity bills or who live off the grid. These water pumps utilize solar energy to circulate and aerate your pond water.

Pond skimmer

A pond skimmer removes debris from the surface of your pond, preventing it from collecting on the bottom. Our collection includes quality pond skimmers to clear impurities such as pollen, leaves, insects, and grass from your pond, keeping the water clean and healthy for your fish to thrive. All our pond skimmers are not only efficient cleaners but also designed with long-lasting components.

Water features

Pond spitters and fountains are the most popular water features. They not only contribute to the aesthetic appeal of your garden but also provide aeration and improve circulation. The sound of running water creates a soothing environment for relaxing. We have a range of beautifully crafted pond spitters, including frogs, dolphins, tortoises, elephants, and more. Our collection also includes a vast selection of stainless steel fountains and waterfalls in various interesting designs.  

What’s the best material for your pond accessories?

Pond accessories are available in a variety of materials. Your choice of material will influence the durability and functionality of your pond. Here are the most common materials for pond accessories.

Polyethylene

Polyethylene is one of the most popular materials for pond liners. It is often reinforced, making it stronger and puncture-resistant than other materials. Polyethylene is also durable and can last up to 40 years. Additionally, it’s safe for fish and aquatic plants.

Polyresin

Polyresin is a common material for water features because of its sturdiness and durability. It has a natural look and is lighter than stone, making it the perfect material for crafting pond spitters. Polyresin is a great alternative to the more expensive natural stone carvings.

Steel

Sleek, durable, and rust-resistant, stainless steel is the most popular material for pond fountains. They come in a range of geometric shapes to draw the eye. Their shiny surfaces reflect light, making your garden space look brighter and bigger. Stainless steel's resistance to rust and corrosion means it can last many years with little maintenance. Additionally, it’s easy to clean. A simple wipe-down is enough to keep it in good condition for years.

Care tips for ponds and water features

Maintaining optimal water quality is key to creating the right ecosystem for your pond. Besides, a clean pond always looks good. Here are care tips to ensure your pond remains in good condition.

• Choose the right pump size—Ideally, your pump should circulate all the water in the pond at least once every two hours. Therefore, be sure to take into account the amount of water in your pond before selecting a pump.

• Maintain the right fish population—Avoid overpopulating your pond with fish. Too many fish excrete a lot of waste, creating an unhealthy environment. If you have more fish than your pond can accommodate, you can find them a new home or sell them to local pond retailers.

• Remove debris – Get rid of any debris in your fish pond before it rots or decays. Leaves, dead insects, and other debris can increase ammonia levels in your fresh water pond, creating an unhealthy environment for your fish.
