Aquatic Plant Delivery and Planting Service

Water Gardens with fish and plants is art, full of life.

Water gardens are aquatic biological ecosystems which receive nutrients in the form of fish food, fish waste, and decaying plant materials. Excess nutrients lead to poor water conditions, and compromised fish and aquatic life health. We offer placement service of Aquatic Plants to keep your pond looking beautiful, using plants to take up extra nutrients.

Plants must be pre-ordered and paid for, either in person, by phone or ordered through this website to ensure we will be ready to schedule your service.

Important:

If we determine GFCI is not operating, we will charge for our travel and mileage and will need to reschedule our maintenance after the electrical requirements are met.
  • GFCI extension cords are not appropriate solutions and are only temporary solutions to appropriate GFCI outlets.
  • Always use a licensed electrician to troubleshoot and repair your GFCI outlets.
