Founded in 2002, Aquatic Management Services (AMS) Ltd has developed into a leading aquatic company specialising in pond and lake management.

The company offers a complete range of products and services, including pond and water garden construction and maintenance, landscaping, fish removal, aquarium installation and maintenance, aquatic consultancy, the supply of aquatic equipment, live fish and plants.

AMS has its own aquatic nurseries where plants and pond fish, including koi, are home grown in perfect conditions for delivery direct to your pond. Pond fish include koi carp, golden orfe, goldfish and sturgeon and are available all year round in a variety of sizes to suit all budgets.

Every year hundreds of plants from stunning lilies, to Marsh Marigolds, Pickerel, Water Hawthorn and Iris, are stocked into ponds and lakes all over the country. AMS has hardy and healthy plants for your water garden, and staff can advise by telephone or email on the best ones to use. The company will even deliver and stock them for you free of charge.

AMS has 15 years' experience in transporting live fish around the country - anything from a few precious koi carp or tropical fish, to tonnes of coarse fish or trout.

Staff can dismantle, transport and assemble complete aquariums and ponds, as well as providing temporary holding tanks with filtration if you are moving house and want to take your cherished pond fish with you. They can even build a new pond at your home if you wish.

Aquariums also require frequent maintenance in order to keep your fish in perfect condition and keep it looking its best. Staff can visit every month or two, and carry out the tasks which can otherwise take up a lot of your free time.

AMS has helped create lakes and fisheries around the country, from small artificially-lined lakes through to larger fisheries. It can either advise on construction and design or carry out the work on your behalf.

As Chartered Environmentalists, sustainable development is incorporated into all working practices, and this is best observed through the creation and management of stillwaters. Services include lake and pond construction, fish removal, silt removal, aquatic weed and algae control. Habitat enhancement and restoration involves ensuring lakes and rivers are attracting a diverse mixture of plants, animals and insects, as well as general maintenance and bank repairs. All aquatic plants and fish, from trout to carp, are supplied.

If your pond, lake or aquarium is in need of a makeover, AMS is currently offering a free fish or aquatic plant with every order booked before July when mentioning this editorial.
