Ecosystem Ponds, Waterfalls, Streams, Wetlands, and Bogs

Transform your yard into a private oasis! Just imagine a babbling brook, cascading waterfalls, playful koi, and water lilies awaiting you at the end of every day. Falling water is music to tired ears! And it’s wonderful to enjoy the changes through the seasons.

Our goal in water gardening is to create a naturally balanced, low-maintenance aquatic ecosystem that allows pond owners more relaxation time by their ponds and less time worrying about maintenance. In biological terms, a community or ecosystem can be defined as organisms—the plants and animals in a pond—interacting with one another within a particular environment.

A pond ecosystem encompasses all the parts of this environment, including living plants and animals, water, air, and sunlight. Backyard ponds can function as ecosystems because they act as a host to the interrelationship of organisms in the environment—birds, fish, frogs, plants, microscopic organisms, bacteria, and fungus.

An Ecosystem Pond built by Rocky Mountain WaterScape will contain a biological filter and pond skimmer to form a unique filtration system resulting in a crystal clear pond. Wetlands and bogs can also aid in filtration, helping the pond’s water stay clean and fresh naturally.
