What is an Ecosystem Pond?
An Ecosystem Pond uses a unique filtration system modelled on the best designer in the world – nature!
Combining a Skimmer Box (mechanical filtration), a Biofalls Filter (biological filtration), waterfalls, aquatic plants, natural boulders, pebbles, cobbles, fish and aquatic life – we can create a low maintenance, self-sufficient ecosystem as found in nature.
All our ponds are designed to look natural and we never display any liner, pipework, filters, plastic parts or pumps. This is why more and more people are choosing Ecosystem Ponds over traditional ‘bare liner’ ponds.
Garden space doesn’t have to be an issue when looking for an Ecosystem Pond. We can build Tiny Ponds (Fairy Pools, approx. 1.5m x 2m) and Small Ponds (approx. 2.5m x 3.5m) to fit any garden. To make the most out of your Ecosystem Pond you would likely need at least 1.5m x 2m which can include a small waterfall.

Medium Ecosystem Ponds are typically up to 5m x 3.5m and this extra space allows for further aquatic planting and larger, longer or more unique waterfalls and streams entering the pond. We apply our filtration system to Ecosystem Ponds to help create a low maintenance and stunning creation that will provide a wonderful home for fish and aquatic life. We often build fish-caves and habitat hides into our ponds to help the wildlife survive and thrive.

Our Large Ecosystem Ponds can be up to 7m x 5m with a 2m stream with waterfalls. With larger ponds our team’s creativity can really come to life. We can include bog beaches, stepping stones and incredible waterfalls and streams entering the pond. We create the perfect environment for aquatic plants and life to thrive which in turn helps keep your pond looking clear and healthy.
When it comes to your dream pond, every garden is different. You need to explore a few areas before you begin planning your project. We break these down into the Why, What and Where. The best place to start is to look at your reason for wanting a pond, the WHY.
