Cold Temperature

Did you know algae can grow in the winter? Algae can grow even in the frigid water under the ice in your lake! Believe it or not, algae growth in the winter does have its benefits. It helps to filter the water, and on warmer days, it's an excellent snack for your fish. Plus, when the algae photosynthesize, they give off oxygen as a byproduct. The algae won't take over your pond as it does in the summer. It can grow, but the cold temperatures aren't ideal for explosive outbreaks.

A long, cold winter could mean trouble for your fish. During the winter much of your pond goes dormant. Organic debris, however, will continue to decompose and release toxic gases into the water column. These gases become trapped by the ice and begin to take the place of oxygen, which can result in a winter fish kill. You can prevent winterkill from happening in the future by aerating your pond or lake. Learn more winter pond care tips.
