I have been operating Carters Nursery Pond & Patio since 1989. I’ve set up countless Garden Shows and hosted hundreds of Pond related workshops (pond builds, design classes, waterfall building, pond maintenance, koi health, etc etc)… I own & operate a 7 acre Garden Center and Aquatic Nursery with running eco-system ponds and a full Koi facility. My goal all these years has been to show Pond Enthusiasts a better way. But, that doesn’t mean I can rest on my laurels… Just Yesterday, I had a great conversation with a walk in customer that lives within 5 miles of my Nursery and has been a pond enthusiast for over 15 years! And guess what… He didn’t know that I was here and he didn’t know what a Pond Skimmer would do for him 😮 Sooooo, needless to say I spent some time with him and gave him the full .10 cent tour of my place! He was blown away and left with a skimmer of his own and a mission to install it himself 💥
So the question remains for many Pond owners –
Q- Does My Koi Pond &/or Water Garden Need A Skimmer?
The answer is YES! Most Definitely…
The simple function of the Skimmer is to help collect surface debris from your Pond. BUT, that’s not all it does for you. A good Skimmer also –
- Houses, hides and pre-filters your Pond Pump! No more clogged pumps! 💥
- By collecting debris before it collects on the pond bottom it Greatly Improves Water Quality!
- A Skimmer also greatly increases dissolved oxygen in your Pond Water! Making a much healthier Pond and much happier Koi!
- A Skimmer does most of the physical work for you, giving you more time to relax 😊
IF you are a Pond guy or gal and don’t have a Pond Skimmer, I am here to help! Drop by and I will show you the light 💡 or give me a call 1-731-424-2206 and I will come to you!
Thanks! & Happy Pondering!

I thought this was a timely shot of a nice Waterfall. This pictures was taken right after dark on a nice evening… Our evenings are about to get a bit longer thanks to Daylight Savings! And its Crappie season at the TN River! This beautiful Pondless Waterfall is at my favorite place to fish for Crappie – Birdsong Resort right outside Camden, TN.
Its Waterfall Wednesday! This weekend we set our clocks ⏰ forward to have more daylight in the evening… I’m ready!
Have a Great #Waterfallwednesday! I’ll see you out on the river 🎣

Don’t blink 👁 It’s #Waterfallwednesday again! I have been going through photos putting together a slideshow presentation for a wonderful group of local gardeners. I just really enjoy looking back at projects we have been involved in! Especially when I get to use the information to help others who are interested in our wonderful hobby of water gardening!
So since I have a few pictures at hand, I will post several Waterfalls for you today! All designed and installed by the team at Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio!
I hope these images lift your day! All of these are in a clients backyard paradise and I just bet you that they are sitting out there right about now, enjoying the sight and sound of their own private Waterfall.
Have a great #Waterfallwednesday!
