- 🦐 Elite micro-fauna included: in addition to the 6 bladder snails (cleaner snails), we offer you 10 water lice (small detritivore crustaceans) to ensure perfect recycling of the silt.
- 🐸 Massive biodiversity oasis: the unique complexity of this assortment attracts and protects a wild fauna of exceptional richness (newts, frogs, dragonflies).

Planting and maintenance tips
-
Installation: consult our illustrated diagram (in the adjacent images) to easily place each plant in its comfort zone and ideal depth.
-
The deep water (oxygenators): install the stems of hornwort, elodea, and Egeria najas at the bottom or mid-water. They will work together for total water clarity.
-
The water surface (floating plants): place salvinia, phyllanthus, and floating frogbit on the surface. The latter will produce beautiful small white flowers and filter the light.
-
The bank carpet (ground cover): install lysimachia and rotala on wet areas, and let the water mint crawl along the edges to spread its refreshing scent.
-
The royal border (bank plants): plant the 6 marsh irises in the background to structure the pond and lobelias and milfoils on the shallow edges.
-
The pond guardians (animals): gently release the 6 bladder snails and 10 water lice among the plants. They will take care of cleaning the bottom and foliage day and night.
-
Hardiness and longevity: almost the entire pack is ultra-hardy. The irises, mint, and floating frogbit (which creates small winter buds called hibernacles) will grow bigger year after year. Only the phyllanthus and salvinia fear frost and must be brought indoors or replaced in the warm season.
⭐ Aquazolla tip: marsh irises and water mint are fantastic living filters. Don’t hesitate to plant them where nutrient inputs are highest to maximize their spectacular growth.

FAQ - Integral pond pack
Why is this pack the most effective against algae?
The secret lies in the principle of occupying ecological niches. By introducing 12 different species spread across all pond layers, you saturate the plant habitat. Algae have no nutrients available nor any space to develop. It’s the ultimate weapon.
What is the role of the water lice included in this kit?
Water lice are amazing small freshwater crustaceans. True shadow scavengers, they spend their lives at the bottom of the pond devouring dead leaves, decomposing debris, and fine silt. Together with the bladder snails, they form the most effective cleaning team possible.
Won’t the marsh iris and mint become too invasive?
These plants grow vigorously, which shows their great purifying efficiency. If you really want to limit their spread in a small space, simply plant them in terracotta pots, which will easily contain their roots.
How do mint and irises behave in winter?
They are completely indestructible against frost in our regions. Their foliage will dry out in late autumn, at which time you can cut it back. From the first rays of spring sunshine, their robust crowns will restart even stronger, denser than the previous year.
