Ecosystem ponds

Work with nature and create habitat with an Aquascape ecosystem pond in your garden.

Looking to add a small pond, a waterfall, creek or even a swim pond with wetland into your garden? Or do you have an existing pond that needs attention? At Bells Water Gardens we design and build natural ecosystem ponds in varying sizes suitable for small courtyards to large properties.

The Aquascape approach we use in creating a natural pond is quite different in that we work with nature, not against it.

We aim to create a complete low maintenance system to provide food, shelter and safety to the wildlife in and around the pond. The Aquascape components used in the building of an ecosystem pond work in synergy with rocks, pebbles, fish and aquatic plants to create an ecological balance and clear water. Turtles, fish, frogs and surrounding wildlife drinking the water all thrive in these ponds.

Why choose an ecosystem pond?

Ecological.

The Aquascape ecosystem pond creates a natural ecological balance in water. The pond is as it is in nature’s streams and waterways, kept healthy by providing a home for beneficial bacteria to survive with the surface value of natural rock, oxygen and filtration from constant flow and aquatic plant life.

Low maintenance.

Maintenance is minimal in an ecosystem pond, providing optimal enjoyment with little work required to keep your water feature looking its sparkling best with a thriving population of aquatic and plant life.  Gone are the days of high maintenance, unreliable filtration, regular cleaning and harmful chemical additives to kill algae.

Peaceful.

Provide a retreat in your own backyard, provide habitat for wildlife and interact with nature.  Somewhere to find peace and fire the senses in nature apart from our busy lives.  The new ecosystem pond owner finds themselves appreciating their time spent around their water garden much more than they anticipated.
