Pond Aerator Vs Pond Decier- Which is better?      
Weekly Ribbit: Pond Tip#9

Previous Tip
Ribbit Library Home

Pond Aerator or Pond De-Icer- Which one is best? ​
Long Valley- Morris County NJ 

Blue Heron New Jersey
Here is what we do and suggest:
​

Use an aerator as your main source for de-icing during the winter, to keep that hole in the ice.   Also add a "true" pond de-icer as a back-up floating in the pond but not plugged in.  Only plug the de-icer in unless it gets really cold and your hole in the ice is closing up.  It's also great to have a back-up de-icing device in the pond in case another decides its too tired and stops working. 

So in reality- Using both is best!
