Pond Maintenance
Pond owners know that ponds require dedication, particularly towards maintenance. Maintaining your pond can be overwhelming, especially for new pond owners, but Fitz’s Fish Ponds is here to help. When it comes to maintenance, you could say it is our specialty. Through years of experience we’ve learned how to keep ponds clear and healthy all year round. We’ve encountered every type of “pond problem” there is. Whether it’s “new pond syndrome” or your water looks like pea soup, we know the steps needed to correct the issue.

Pond Cleaning
Part of having a healthy pond is having it cleaned when necessary. The frequency of cleanings depends on the size of the pond, number of fish, filtration system, amount of debris, and other factors. Generally you can tell if your pond needs a cleaning simply by looking at it. If you have a buildup of debris or your water clarity is becoming a problem, it’s probably time for a cleaning.

Fall Netting
As September rolls around and those hot summer days fade away, the trees inevitably begin to lose their leaves. Falling leaves can not only make your pond a mess, but also create a toxic environment for your fish. Leaves left in the pond over the winter will decompose, creating sludge and harmful toxins. Netting your pond is an easy and effective solution to this problem, if done correctly.

Pond Winterization
Once fall comes nad time to begin preparing your pond for winter. Our winterization service ensures your fish will be safe for the winter and your pond will be healthy when spring comes. There are multiple steps that go into winterizing your pond, which are listed below. We combine all of these services into one winterization package for you.

Pond Water Testing
Let’s face it, not all ponds are beauties. Some ponds are improperly installed to begin with, others may have been professionally installed but are now showing their age. Some look good but don’t function properly, others may be working great but are an eyesore for the customer. There is a long list of reasons pond-owners may be unhappy with their pond, but no matter what that reason is, we are here to help.

Natural Ponds
Fitz’s Fish Ponds has an extensive background working with natural ponds. For us the term “natural pond” usually describes larger ponds, including man-made, where the water is retained naturally (no liner or concrete). We understand that for owners of natural ponds,it may seem like an overwhelming task to maintain such a large body of water.

We believe no two ponds or water features should be the same, and no idea is too farfetched.

I live in Highland Park and needed an outdoor fountain Called and left a message with Fitz's Fish Ponds, who I found doing an internet search. Tim the sales manager called me back very soon after and came by to take a look; said he needed to return with an extra person to disassemble the fountain and take a look inside (it is VERY heavy!). Returned less than a week later, diagnosed the issue and had it fixed and running that day. Tim called the next day to make sure all was well. Nice to receive such prompt and professional service; not easy to come by these days! I will be using their services in future for all my fountain needs. Highly recommend.

WOW! I was blown away by Tim's responsiveness, expertise and professionalism. Other companies were flakes, did not know what they were talking about and/or tried to charge ridiculous amounts of money. Fitz's and Tim were extremely fair in their pricing and the service could not have been anymore EXCELLENT! Well done! If you have pond needs, these are definitely your guys.

Now this is a great people who do what they do brilliantly. We "inhered" a huge Koi pond when we bought our house 3 months ago and had no idea how to care for it.The owner, Brian, came, looked and took it all over. Yes, it costs money but if you love your Koi this crew can handle anything including emergency medical care for Koi in need.They just moved to a larger facility right on the other side of Rt. 22 going east

We had Fitz's Fish Ponds come out and do a complete redo on a leaky, unattractive, unstable pond that's liner would float up and crowd our fish. Tim, Brian, and every one of the guys who worked on our pond were beyond careful, neat and respectful of our yard and our fish who had already been through so much. I can't even believe all that they did to transfer the fish, dig and design the most magnificent, natural, healthy pond I could have ever imagined. We are so in love with our new pond and what it has added to our home. It's so beautiful, the fish can hide and feel safe, they are even taking food from our hands and thriving. The water is crystal clear and we feel as if we are living at a resort. We can see the waterfalls (yes, multiple waterfalls!) from inside our home and anywhere in the back yard. They were so helpful and obviously the highest level professionals. We had no idea all of the work involved. We were totally blown away. If you have the chance to work with Fitz's Fish Ponds, you will be amazed and so happy you did. We absolutely love them!!

They did an amazing job cleaning my pond. They removed all of our Koi fish (about 60) and power washed the entire liner. They placed the rocks back to make it look even more beautifuI. I would highly recommend them for all of your pond needs.

The professionalism, integrity, knowledge, and workmanship cannot be beat. Not only are they super helpful when you stop by the store for fish or supplies, but their attention to customers outside the store is incredible. After using this company for my pond supplies I got them out to do a spring cleaning, after which I noticed the water level would keep dropping. As upset as I was, I knew I was in great hands once I was connected with Tim, who over the past month made sure that the problem was diagnosed and fixed. Finally, it was determined that the liner had a leak and their crew came out to replace the entire liner at no extra charge, which included taking all the rocks off and then placing them back on after the new liner was on. They toiled all day in the humidity and left my property spotless which a gorgeous waterfall and a happy Koi! Can’t wait to finally get some beautiful fish to keep my lonely Koi company! I will never trust my pond to any other company, thank you Tim and the crew for being so very amazing!

I tried to build a pond by myself 3 years ago and it has been a 3 year nightmare. I’ve spent thousand on stones filters and liners but I could never get it right. Brian came here first phone call and was great. I told him what I wanted and what my budget was. He was very understanding and blew my expectations out of the water. His crew was so incredibly helpful and creative. They drained my 2 thousand gallon pond cleaned everything and built an enormous waterfall in one day. Would recommend them to anyone!

Very professional, courteous and skilled. Brian came out to give the estimate for free (which is apparently rare in this industry), worked with me for all different options to keep the price in my budget. Once we agreed on what we want to do, they came out and put the new life in the pond. New new pond increased curb appeal so much we sat out on our steps for the first time since we bought the house. Really really happy with how the pond looks now. Thank you!!

I've been to several koi farms but this one blew my mind. This place has a large variety of beautiful koi. From small to jumbo. They're very professional and knowledgeable. Not only do they sell beautiful healthy fish but also had everything you need for a pond. Definitely will be back.

We had Fitz's Fish Ponds come by to do a cleanout as well as replace a pump. Even though it was raining steadily for most of the day, Rudy and Hernan didn't miss a beat and did a very thorough job. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again, very hard workers. Everyone at Fitz's Fish Ponds were very professional and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

After a year of completing my 4000 gallon pond and all the hard work that went into it,the next step was to start my koi collection.After extensive research I found Brian to come highly recommended and respected in the koi community.Today I had the privilege of visiting his farm and meeting him.Words cant describe my experience today.Anyone intrested in purchasing a koi should visit his facility for the vast variety of japanese koi he offers!Whether a first time buyer/collector like myself or an experienced collector he has something for everyone.I purchased 5 beautiful koi on my first trip looking forward to my next visit and adding to my collection.His team was very professional and knowledgeable and did not disappoint!Keep up the great work!

We couldn't be more happy with our experience. Tim, Jimmy, Ryan and the whole Fitz team were professional, knowledgeable and meticulous from start to finish. All of the work was done efficiently and in a very timely manner. These skilled professionals take their creative abilities and turn their ideas into works of art. Highly recommend them and our only regret is that we didn't have them build our pond sooner.

These guys are putting together quite a 2nd location.Very hardware centric, but what fish & plants they do stock look well maintained.Only criticism I have is...when bagging fish, if double bagging, do not invert either bag.Inner bags were inverted, didn't see it since it was in a larger store bag w other items.Got home found 2 suicide by creases as I was acclimating & adding to tank.10 bucks fertilizer.

My family and I went to Fitz's Fish pond for some koi. Not only was the quality of the fish amazing but the staff were beyond knowledgeable! One of our party dropped their phone in the water and Brian Fitz jumped in the Koi holding tank to get the phone! Not sure any other place that would do this! We will be back and highly recommend looking them up online or in person!

We have used Fitz for several years now and have been so happy with their responsiveness and the quality of their work. They are heads above our former provider and their knowledge of fish and their needs has been a real asset. Our koi are thriving and the pond and waterfall look amazing! Billie has a great eye and has been exceptionally good at caring for our fish and the pond. We really appreciate all the hard work that she and the team put in to create this beauty!

I usually do not write reviews but I felt compelled to share what a great professional service Fitz offers. I want to give a big shout out to Billie at Fitz Ponds who has been servicing my Pond since June this year. Billie has been doing an amazing job and showed me the ropes when it comes to caring for my Pond. I am new to the Koi Pond world and Billie made it pretty easy for me. I am happy to report that all the hard work paid off as we now have 4 baby Koi which was very exciting for us when we first noticed them. If you are looking for a company who services ponds then look no further than Fitz Ponds and ask for Billie who does an outstanding job.

We have been using Fitz's Pond Services for many years now for seasonal opening and closings as well as routine maintenance - They offer top notch, professional and quality care for our precious Koi Fish.Friendly and very knowledgeable staff - Most recently, Logan came to the rescue when our pond's UV light and aerator malfunctioned and our water became off balanced ... He knew exactly what was wrong and was able to get things improved immediately. Logan knows his stuff - I had a great conversation with him about his passion for aquatic animals :) Side note, I had to give him an extension cord that was in a huge jumbled mess (sorry! ) and even though he didn't have to use it - he wrapped it up nicely before returning it to me. He totally went the extra mile ... just another fine example and reason why I highly, highly recommend this business for all your pond needs!ps - Billie has also worked with our pond, too - she is just as fabulous!

We are very satisfied with our pond designed and built by Fitz Fish ponds. Tim took the time to come visit our house and discuss possible layouts and designs. Our pond was completed on time and on budget. The FFP crew took the extra steps to minimize any impact on our yard from the equipment use to install the pond. The service and knowledge from Thomas at the Colts Neck location has been more than helpful. Also a visit to the farm is a must!
