Why Choose Aquarium Xpress
How It Works
A straightforward process from first contact to ongoing service.
Pre-Clean Assessment
We evaluate your pond's condition, note the level of debris and sludge buildup, and confirm the scope of the cleaning. We'll let you know what to expect before we start.
Fish Removal & Temporary Housing
We carefully net and move your fish to a temporary holding tank with aerated pond water while we clean. Fish safety is the top priority throughout the process.
Drain & Deep Clean
We drain the pond and remove all accumulated sludge, debris, and organic matter from the floor, rocks, and waterfall. This is the most important step for restoring water quality.
Filter & Equipment Service
We clean or replace filter media, clean the pump, inspect all equipment, and address any issues found during the cleaning.
Refill & Fish Return
We refill the pond with treated, dechlorinated water, allow it to reach the right temperature, and carefully reintroduce your fish. We test water parameters before and after to confirm everything is stable.
