Welcome, I'm new to the pond people. Wish I could be of more help. The
best thing to do as one of the ponders said is read all the information
they give others. I've learned so much from the web site. Log on to all
their web sites and see how they handle things. You will really enjoy the
new found hobby trust me. They will answer any one on one questions the best
they can, but they have allot of different ideas. Kc
