I want to put a small pond or water feature in the back. Came across a 24'x24' piece of rubber roofing 1/8" to 3/16" thick. I've had a friend raise fish and grow plants in this same type of liner and I've also heard that it can't be done and everything will die because of the type of rubber. Who...

Today I fed at fuzzie mouse HOW cool was it to watch. The female ate 2 of them she will not be hungry for a while. The male lays low during...

Does anyone know if Algaefix kills the benefical bacteria in your pond? I've been trying to find the answer this question for weeks. Thanks.

Hi, For the last couple of years, I have had a 100 gallon pond (moulded black liner) where my Koi have successfully bred. This Spring I have encountered a small, annoying problem. There is a furry deposit on the sides of the pond - probably algae? that easily flakes off and is being stirred up...

I'm about to install a pond and have heard that some people use a special fabric layer on the soil, before they put the liner down. Apparently it stops little stones sticking through. I just happen to have a load of oold carpet and the underlay that I have taken out of the house when a wooden flor...

I beginning to suspect I have a leak in my liner. Other than the water level showing the height where the leak may be located, are there any suggestions for pin pointing the leak on the perimeter of the pond?

Anyone got, of knows anything about flexiponds? It’s a rigid pond made from “a revolutionary rubberised material” which means it can be folded up and delivered in a box. According to the manufacturer it’s like a cross between a flexible and a rigid liner with the advantages of both and none of...

I had a leak in my garden pond and had to take the fish out and put in a new liner. That was realy pain. I put new water in, chlorine neutralizer, and bio start for the pond. I put the fish back in and they seem to be alright but they have been hiding near the pump. They only come out when...

We recently moved into this house and "inherited" what could be a nice little pond. Trouble is, the previous owner hasn't cleaned it out or done anything to it since about July last year and it's a right mess of dead plants and blanketweed, but also now getting new growth on plants as well. It...

Hi What are your thoughts on planting pond plants in standard garden clay. When I dug the pond last year I had about 2ft of top soil and then straight into clay. I just fancied doing quite a lot of planting / transplating & wanted to avoid the cost of buying a lot of compost from the pond...

bonsai trees aren't that difficult to cultivate. If you've taken care of a regular houseplant, you're more than halfway there. But unlike houseplants, bonsai trees are actually trees -- and can be killed if kept indoors during the winter. In fact, you'll be amazed at how simple it is to create...

Could you please help me by taking a short survey on your vehicle? I'm helping a friend gather information on vehicle use, comparing how do-it-yourself'ers use their vehicles with other people. http://www.zoomerang.com/survey.zgi?p=WEB2256GE63FJF Thanks in advance!

I found a great book about water gardens at Amazon, Better Homes and Gardens Water Gardens. It sold at Wal Mart for over $13.00 but at Amazon I bought 2 used for less than $5 each. I'll be using ideas in it to re-build our backyard retreat, our Great Garden Pond, this spring and add a waterfall....

What thickness should the base for a concrete pond be? I have excavated my pond area to about 15ft x 8ft x 3ft deep which I then intend to build up above the surface another 2.5-3 ft giving a depth of approx 5 ft. As I intend to fit a bottom drain, the literature says that I should prepare a 6inch...

Apparently there is an issue with Ames True Temper plastic wheelbarrow rims breaking or expoding under pressure. The concern is that the plastic shards which fly out when the rim explodes have caused injury to people and as a result the wheelbarrows have been recalled. If you check...
