Feeling a bit overwhelmed by the continuing
attacks so thought I'd create a new topic.

What are you going to try new in the pond this
year?
A new plant, make a veggie filter, build a bog,
try a different kind of fish, add a turtle, repel
invaders, or build a new pond or container water
garden?

=========================
I just bought a mini Umbrella plant (Cyperus) and a colorful chameleon
plant (Houttuynia) for my small 150 gallon pond. The little waterfall is
also new for this year. The rosy reds love it and hang out at the bottom,
in the turbulence. This little pond is a real show piece.

McKoi.... the frugal ponder...

Your internet supplier (ISP) should have space available. If not you
can get free webspace from Yahoo. For more visit:

http://geocities.yahoo.com

This service is easy to use since it is menu driven from you internet
browser.

Getting back to ponds, in my pond which is spring fed with no pump or
filter, I am in the process of installing an air pump (40 watt) to
aerate the pond. I noticed some anaerobic bacteria this spring when I
was bringing up my plants from the bottom of the pond. The minnows were
OK, but there was some anaerobic slime on the bottom.

Yes my ISP provides space but since I've had so much trouble with a few
whiners and a stalker I would rather not use that space at this time. I'll
look into alternatives first.
