      First, skim any debris off the top. Do this once a week. If they are bugs on the top, leave them for the fish, that is one of they're favorite foods.

      Take out all the filters and spray them with a hose. You should do this once to four times a week, depending on size of pond, number of fish, and number of filters.

      Take a pond vacuum and vacuum the pond 1-3 times a month, again depending on size of pond, number of fish, and number of filters. This will keep the pond debris from settling on the bottom of the pond. If you see algae, use an algaecide that is fish friendly and follow the instructions. That's all you have to do!
