Water gardening is becoming an increasingly popular hobby and is one of the fastest growing branches of the aquarium trade. While water gardens are beautiful and promote feelings of serenity and calm, they can also represent troubled waters as invasive species can often appear and be accidently spread by water gardening activities.


It is important that water gardeners understand the impacts that aquatic invasive species can have and take actions to ensure these species don’t spread while still enjoying their hobby.

This resource is developed for water gardeners and others interested in backyard water gardening.
