Description
Pond specialist & aquatic plant breeder
A hydrogen purifier does not work well, and electric pond filters require high maintenance and are considerably more expensive. Natural water purifiers such as pond snails and pond mussels have a one-time purchase price and reduce maintenance costs. This is because natural water purifiers filter the water of waste products, clean the bottom of the pond and remove bottom silt and eat debris that enters the pond such as dead leaves without affecting aquatic plants. Say goodbye to murky pond water and those pesky floating algae! With pond mussels you get back clear water in a natural way. These creatures work like a living filter; they chew up floating algae and make your pond sparkle again. No hassle with chemicals that often do more harm than good. By using pond mussels, you are contributing to a healthier pond and a better environment. They ask little of you, but give a lot back: clear water, less algae, and a natural balance in your pond. Plus, they're a sustainable choice; you don't replace them every year, which saves on costs and waste. Why choose yet another chemical remedy when nature itself provides the solution? Our pond mussels are not only natural purifiers, but also self-sufficient. They require no extra feed and maintenance is a piece of cake. And, not insignificantly, they are safe for your pond plants and fish, provided you keep the big boys separate for a while. For pond owners with koi or sturgeon: place the mussels in a basket to protect them from hungry fish. That way you get maximum benefit from their purifying power without them ending up as snacks. Ready to transform your pond? Order your pond mussels easily online, directly from our nursery. For an average pond, we recommend a minimum of 1 mussel per 100 gallons of water. Delivery is fast and the mussels arrive to you with everything you need to know for a worry-free start.

Great advice and material from Simon for our new pond.
So without any prior knowledge from us now for 3 years a picture in the garden and beautiful clear water 🍀🙏
Selma Grund
Great products and knowledgeable!
Ordered 6 x crab crab, these arrived somewhat short-winged and did not float well in the pond. But with some patience and attention they have now grown beautifully large and are flowering beautifully!
Lex Shoerds
For 30 years I have had a pond. Remodeled this season with some of my old pond water and plants.
Supplemented with clear pond suggestions from van der Velde. The result is better than I ever had: beautiful plants and so clear that I can see the fish down to the bottom.
Really great !!!

A first patio pond is fun and exciting to experiment with. With the help of the excellent, involved support, the plants from the mini kit have come to life. Thanks to the addition of extra bacteria, I can now easily see a frog swimming in the mini pond. Thanks to Britt for her good advice. Also, the delivery is careful and fast. So far, a beautiful water lily has appeared twice, folding its leaves to go to sleep at night.Just following this cycle is beautiful.

Without too much experience, I began a sizable pond project. I bought Simon's book, and it helped me tremendously, both in construction and setup. Then I ordered the substrate, bacteria and all the plants, following as much as possible the method described in the book, for a natural pond without pumps and filters.
Tim Lommerse
Very knowledgeable advice, extensive web shop and above all, excellent customer service.
My supplied Cape Lily turned out not to be viable, without any problems a new one was then sent in no time.
Maria Janssen
Can't say that I super liked what I ordered from Van der Velde. Plants, food, ground cover, gravel.
Well packed, fast delivery, and excellent quality!
If you have not ordered anything I would do it quickly, you will not regret it.
Good luck !
