As a ‘Pond Enthusiast’ I am always looking for ideas & tips to keep my Water Garden cleaner and ways to have less maintenance. Then I like to share them with you 😊 One of the biggies is Proper Filtration! Keeping the water clean & clear! And also, keeping the algae and sludge to a minimum… That brings me to today’s Pond Tip : 👇🏻 – Algae Eating Japanese Trapdoor Snails (Viviparis malleatus). 💥
These snails are highly sought after by Pond Keepers. They are non-invasive, hardy & will help to keep algae under control in your Water Garden! Japanese Trapdoor Snails will work around your entire Pond consuming decaying organic matter like algae, leaves, excess fish food, and fish waste.
Japanese Trapdoor Snails are hardy and can live up to 5 years! They really help to keep your pond clean. Here’s one we just pulled out of a pond at Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio during a clean out demonstration | Jackson, TN
Japanese Trapdoor Snails are “Live-Bearing” and only breed a couple of times per year – So they won’t take over your pond! Unlike other snails that can breed out of control.
Japanese trapdoor Snails do a great job helping with Pond Maintenance and they only cost around $5 each.
I try to always have some available for purchase. You need to have around 10 Japanese Trapdoor Snails per 50 sq. ft. of surface area of pond and they really make a difference!
I usually post a Waterfall or nature shot for my Moment of Zen, but I thought this was a good offering as well. Hundreds And hundreds of fellow Americans celebrating our country together! Not 1 fight or argument did I see or hear of! I took this short video from the boat I was on, as you see LOTS of others came in their boats as well. Check it out 👇🏻
It was a great to see so many people getting along and cheering for our country! We need more of this ❤️
The Declaration of Independence changed everything! It changed the world! No matter your politics, today is the day for Americans to celebrate and wave Old Glory🇺🇸! I still get choked up when we all stand and put our hands on our hearts and pledge the flag!
I’m proud of that “Ragged Old Flag”! How about you? #Godblessamerica!
Stars and Stripes Forever!
Freedom’s natal day is here. Fire the guns and shout for freedom, See the flag above unfurled! Hail the stars and stripes forever, Dearest flag in all the world.

Another week has past and it’s #waterfallwednesday again! My focus this week is on a Very special kind of Waterfall – The Pondless Waterfall!
This Pondless Waterfall was just plugged in! If you want a truly Low Maintenance Water Feature, look no further than a Custom Pondless Waterfall. | Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio | Jackson, Tennessee
I ❤️ Pondless Waterfalls! They are Low Maintenance, totally customizable & sound so nice! You get the Waterfall & stream without the maintenance of the Pond & Fish!
Here you see the workings of a Pondless Waterfall. As you see, the water is held underground and the pump can’t clog. Talk about Low Maintenance! | Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio | Jackson, Tennessee
Check out this link below – there is more complete info on Pondless Waterfalls and even a portfolio of some Pondless Waterfalls that we designed and built right here at Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio! Check the link 👇🏻 https://carterslandscape.com/wp/pondless-waterfalls/
Enjoy your “Hump Day” and enjoy Waterfalls! Especially Pondless Waterfalls!
There’s not much more relaxing than floating on the river. Add to it a nice breeze, the sun ☀️ starting to set & Old Glory blowing in the wind… Priceless Zen
Summertime in Tennessee is hard to beat 😊
Enjoy your day! And don’t forget, this is a special week – This Saturday is the 4th of July! 💥🇺🇸
Turn off the TV, lay down the smart phone, relax your mind for a little while… I’ve been reflecting on things lately. My life, family, country, God. I for one feel blessed! I am proud to be an American! I took this picture last night as we watched the sunset. Old Glory speaks volumes if you’ll listen…
I want to take a minute and say how thankful I am to be an American! No other country on the face of the earth affords us the rights and privileges that we have as Americans. Stand up! Speak your mind! Hold your ground! God Bless America! 🇺🇸
God bless America, Land that I love, Stand beside her and guide her Through the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans white with foam. God bless America, My home sweet home. God bless America, My home sweet home.
