Plant growth is essential for the ecosystem in a biological pool. Well growing plants incorporate nutrients diluted in water and are thus the natural competitors of algae. Well-developed aquatic vegetation is the basis for bathing water quality. Like terrestrial plants, aquatic plants also release a lot of oxygen during the day. In well-oxygenated water, [...]

But also among insects there are species that spend their youth in the water and adult life in the air. We talk about dragonflies and damselflies. More than 60 species live [...]
Most biological pools are configured as small lakes for bathing. They have a division into two zones, one for bathing and another, which surrounds the first, where the plants that are purifying the water grow. But there are also biological pools of architectural forms (biopool), with basins confusing similar with conventional pools. In these [...]

Over the course of a year, one hundred square meters of aquatic plants in a biological pool can assume about 100 kg CO2. In other words, each biological pool contributes to the fixation of carbon dioxide (because almost all of them have at least 100 m2 of area of aquatic plants). But we have [...]
