Read more Spawning Season There are a few reasons why pond foam forms and some of them are definitely not a cause for concern. For instance, if you find pond foam accumulation right about dusk or daybreak during spring time, you shouldn't be concerned. In fact, you probably should be rejoicing! Fish, like most animals, mate in spring and typically do it at dusk or daybreak. So this exciting activity would explain pond foam sighting at that period. The foam you see could also actually be fish sperm and eggs released when spawning. Protein Skimming A pond has its way of naturally trapping proteins and other organics wherever air and water collide. This end up as ammonia and nitrates in bubbles and can be typically observed at the base of a waterfall. If bubbles mainly just accumulate at the base of the waterfall, your pond is most probably just skimming proteins from the water. Stressed Fish : Stressed fish produce slime, which is organic and can possibly be a contributing factor to pond foam. If this is the case, check for causes of stress like ammonia levels, nitrite levels and ph. It would also be clever to have a vet take a slime sample to rule out parasite-caused diseases. Excessive Algae : Growth The wide-spread growth of algae can induce the formation of pond foam. This is because an over-population of single celled algae releases abundant organic compounds that result to foam.
