Care Tips Sunlight: Ensure 4-6 hours of daily light. Water quality: Keep pH between 6.5-7.5. Substrate: Use pond-specific soil or gravel. Oxygenation: Add aerators or oxygenating plants. Algae control: Introduce floating plants or algae-eating fish. Maintenance: Trim dead leaves and remove invasive species.
