Hello-hope someone will help! I have a Pondvac 2 and it operated perfectly well this morning..but..this afternoon..

I've just built myself a tiny pond and waterfall inside a tiny cave in a cliff-face in my garden. The rock was very fractured and so I concreted the base and water-course, but it still loses the water. I have a large amount of Unibond and wondered if anyone can recommend using it for this job? I do...

I have been given some Azola Fairy Moss but a friend as told be not to put it in the pond and put it in the dustbin. I have goldfish and Kio in the pond. What should I do with it.?

Hi there! Has anyone ever heard of using a siphon to make a trickle fountain? I haven't worked much with siphons and don't have a very good grasp on physics but I thought with the right setup one might be able to make a trickle fountain with a tall erect siphon,... kind of like this Ascii...

billfish Wrote: Thanks, I think I will try a few as a change from the "food sticks" now and then. I'll post again and let folks know whether the fish like them. Bill. I managed to catch a few very small (about 5mm) sandhoppers this afternoon (the decent-sized ones don't come out till...

While feeding my pond fish today I notice about 30 miniscule fry, maybe 2.5mm long. I would love to rear these and then reintroduce them back into my pond. Can anyone give me advice on how to look after them, whether to remove them from the pond, etc. Thanks, a happy fish Daddy! -- XBL : D0C RAY

Hello all- Another question. I tried to order a stock tank from Tractor Supply. I talked to a woman who said she'd order it and to check back in two weeks. I just checked and I'm not confident that she even knew who I was or ordered it since she just asked me to call back. Okay, bottom...

Hi I bought some time ago a Otter Maximus 3000, over this time the filter which is placed around the outside of the pump has gradually fallen to pieces. A replacement is around the £12 mark ( the pump only cost me £45) which seems to me very expensive for what appears to be some stiffish foam, a...
