Pumps, filters, UV clarifiers, liners, pre-formed ponds and treatments for backyard ponds, koi ponds and water gardens, plus filtration installs and pond maintenance from our Ballina team.
Backyard ponds & water gardens
Whether you're building a new pond or upgrading an existing one, the pump, filter and liner you choose decide how much work it takes to keep clear for years to come.
We stock the equipment and treatments to create and maintain a healthy pond, and our team can help you choose what suits your pond's size, its fish and the look you're after.
Ranges and sizes change through the year. Contact us before you visit if you're after a particular pump, filter or liner size.

Planning a pond
Bring your pond's measurements and a photo or two, and we can talk through each of these with you in store.
The pond's volume decides almost everything else: pump size, filter capacity and how many fish it can hold.
Choose a pump for the volume plus any waterfall or fountain. Moving water carries waste to the filter and keeps oxygen up.
A filter handles waste; a UV clarifier controls the green-water algae that turns ponds cloudy. Many ponds need both.
Water lilies, marginals and floating plants shade the water and compete with algae. Add fish once the pond is established.
