Natural water filtration with: Pond snails, Mussels and Moss balls
The pond snails, Mussels and moss balls play an important role in filtering waste products from the pond, being particularly fond of filamentous algae but also clearing other types of algae effortlessly. A group of 20 pond snails, 10 mussels and 10 moss balls can filter about 1,000 - 4,000 liters of water per day from algae.
Pond snails with pond plants
Posthorn snails and pool snails are valuable additions to your pond, as they do not harm your aquatic plants. On the contrary, they play a crucial role in cleaning up algae and other waste products in your pond. These snails specialize in consuming algae and help maintain a healthy and balanced pond environment. Moss balls also filter the water in the pond and here they act as vacuum cleaners. This is because they roll over the pond floor, algae and other waste products stick to their downy hairs, which the moss ball cleans up naturally.
Freshwater mussels filter pond water by ingesting and filtering water through their gills. They feed on suspended particles such as algae and organic waste, returning purified water to the pond. By doing so, they reduce the amount of nutrients in the water, which can lead to reduced algal blooms and turbidity. A freshwater mussel filters about 10 gallons of water per hour.
