Before the pond ices over, the filter should be stored indoors.
CAUTION: During the winter, the fish in the pond go through a period of rest where they become very inactive and waste production
becomes very low. At this time, the filter should be emptied of water so that freezing water does not damage the unit:
A. Do a final backflush.
B. Disconnect plumbing.
C. Drain excess water.
D. Store indoors.
NOTE: The warranty does not cover damage to the filter due to freezing water.
When starting the filter again in the spring, it will go the through the same maturation process as the first year. Be sure not to overfeed
your fish in the early spring.
Tetra Pond foods are 100% food with no fillers, making them highly digestible, thus creating less waste in the water. Feed often (2 to 3
®
times a day), but only as much as the fish will consume within 5 minutes.
A well-planted pond is a great defense against algae. Plants take nutrients such as nitrates from the water, depriving algae of the
source it needs to live. Surface plants such as water lilies and lotuses provide additional shade to the pond, thus further reducing algae.
You can use Tetra Pond Water Clarifier to clump contaminants and make it easier for the bio-activators in the filter to remove them.

Make sure your pond is reasonably clean by removing any sediment with a pond vacuum or a fine-mesh net. Excessive sediment
containing organic material will decompose and provide nutrients for algae growth.
Changing up to 25% of the pond water is another way of reducing nutrients which contribute to algae growth. Be sure every time you
do water change to use a water conditioner such as Tetra
present in tap water and that are harmful to fish.
String Algae Control
String algae can attach itself to stones in the waterfall or stream, or on stones around the pond. It is recommended that this be
physically removed by hand or with a strong spray of a hose nozzle. A fine-mesh net can be used to remove string algae once it has
been dislodged from the stones. You can also use Tetra
For high performance, power your Tetra
Debris-Handling Pump. This combination of pump and filter provides the easy solution for pond
maintenance and care.
