Water Lilly Leaves by
Lawrence
Hi All,
Winter is fast-approaching here and I was wondering if I should cut off
the old water lily leaves and remove them from the pond or should I just let
the water lilies do their own thing? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Calculating Water Volume by
itten
I got a formula for calculating the water volume of my pond for the purpose
treating it.. The formula stated length x width x 7.5 = volume.. Why
doesn't the depth of the pond make a difference? The depth is not part of
the formula.

Railroad Ties by
itten
I built my water garden with raiload ties stacked 3 high with a liner. I
was wondering if the creosote in the ties would leech into the pond when it
rained. I built one of these a few years ago and had some problems with my
koi dying. I don't know if it was a result of the ties or not. When...

50 lb bags of builders sand to the water. She told me to rinse it because
it has silt in it, but I didn't take her advice. The water is cloudy. Will
this clear up in time, if not, is there an additive that will remove...

Is it too late to introduce koi to a pond by
Rob G
Earlier this summer our well established pond was poisoned with
detergent - all very amusing for the perpetrator as the foam was
massive and we got complaints from the neighbours about it.
I've left it 4 months after a full clean out and refill, and am
wondering whether I could restock now or...

Bullfrogs by
Jeanne
I imported a dozen big bullfrog tadpoles from a company. They all looked
fine -- second year tadpoles. Some had hind legs starting. #12 died. As
an experiment, I let #11 out of his protection screen box to see the koi
reaction. They looked him over but didn't pay much attention thereafter.
So,...

How to identify fry by
Sam Megarry
I have a 1400 gallon pond with a few mature KOI, 2 comets, 2 shebunkins
and a goldfish. I've now got hundreds of fry, literally!
Some are olive/grey, I assume goldfish, some are like mini KOI, I
assume these are comets.
How can you tell?
How would you know if you had KOI fry?

snakes and frogs by
Michelle Bailey
I knew our water garden had frogs and a lot of tadpoles. Yesterday saw a
snake. I realize that the frogs are a food source for the snakes. So,
we're draining, killing snakes, cleaning and refilling. But how do we not
repeat the pattern? Is there a way to repel frogs and snakes but not...

Baby goldfish - overwinter inside? by
gardencottage
We have 2 goldfish and 2 shabumkins
We recently spotted babies - 2 orange and 3 black
They must be at least 2 months old and probably 1.5 inches long
Should we move the babies inside for overwintering?
Our pond is probably just over 1/2 metre deep and the larger goldfish
have survived a few winters...
