Plants
Well we are still deep in the oh so joyous summer heat so now is the time to provide your fish with much needed shade. If your water garden is in direct sunlight, the water may get excessively warm, sticking your fish in the Sahara Desert. But don't worry, this is an easily solvable problem. All you must do is add some plants to your water garden. We have many large leaved tropical water lilies and lotus (aka sun umbrellas). Floating plants, such as water hyacinth and water lettuce, can also help provide the much needed shade for your fish. They also relieve the water from excess nutrients, helping clarify your water. Quick tip: if you have a skimmer and your floating plants are constantly getting caught in it, stick your floaters in a hula hoop. Just make sure it isn't a heavy hula hoop, otherwise it will be the Titanic all over again.

Ponds
Another problem this extreme heat is causing is the lack of oxygen in our ponds. High temperatures can make oxygen levels go down. This is very bad for your fish because they need this oxygen to breathe. In extreme cases fish can even die because of low oxygen levels. But don't worry, this is an easy fix. Good flowing waterfalls add oxygen to the pond, along with fountain pumps, and pond aerators.
