Hi all, Just a happy note to say thank you to Kathy and her Hubby for the advice given on how to equalize water on an upper pond leading by waterfall to a lower pond. It's up and running and the pipe thing worked just fine. The placement of the rocks for the waterfall was a bitch...lol but well...

Hoping someone can help me- I'm interested in building a square or rectangular pond on my pool deck. I just moved to Naples Florida. I'd like to find a pre-formed tub and build a face for it. My problem is where to find a large tub in the area. Any suggestions? Also, has anyone built one of...

One of my Koi is clearly using a mouthful of rough gravel to chew her food when I put a piece of meat in front of her. Then she spits the gravel out. This is in a 60 gallon aquarium. The bottom is covered with irregular rubble granite gravel with approximately 1/4" dimensions. The fish takes...

ok, I have been adding a few more fish to my pond this year. I am 'trying' black moors & orandas etc. plus a few small koi . most of them had just vanished. I 'did' find a dead fish on the bottom of my pond. by sheer luck, as the light was in the riight spot. questions: I thought dead fish...

Super lookin g setup....I like the theme, it fits the coastal area just fine.... What part of the country are you located in? No need for address, just county or city would do or even the state, if your paranoid about folks on the internet knowing too much. I'm located in LA, ( Lower Alabama....

Hello all. This summer I'm going to be away for a number of week-long trips. I suspect my neighbors are getting tired of me asking them to feed my koi (9 fish in 3000 gal with bio & UV filters). I've looked at some koi feeders on the web but they all seem so expensive. Has anyone figured out how to...

Works along the same line as the beach ball. A friend that works at a wildlife preserve told me to put some helium filled mylar balloons around the pond. They supposedly can't stand the motion and all the reflections. I have had them up for about a month and my 6" platinum butterfly is still...

Crumble is the decayed heartwood of trees, or rotten wood. You have to go to some trouble to collect crumble. There are many different kinds. It was the first mulch. It has an interesting historic background, if anyone is interested. I have played around with different uses I have been growing...

Or be careful what you wish for... I took some seeds from these grasses from a lake in Idaho and thought one bunch would be nice at the edge of the pond. One bunch. HA! There is NO such thing as one bunch with this grass. You can go to the website below and see where I posted a picture of these...

I think my wife may have stumbled upon a solution to our heron problem. And it's really cheap!!! We love watching our koi play with floating orange sections so one day my wife thought she'd see if they would play with a beach ball. She put a multi-colored 12" one in the pond. No, the koi weren't...

I've sorted out the overstocking of the pond to give Jaws more room, but in the process I've found that the pond is overrun with leaches. I've not introduced any new fish or plants for years. Those fish that were in the pond have bred themselves. Can leaches come in on frogs etc? How do I get...
