reason I thought about rec.ponds...

Me, either. Never mind that we needed some way to cut down on tracked
litter from our kitty's box, and I saw a really nifty set-up that would fill
the bill and solve a separate problem that seemed unsolvable, but the dang
cat box "credenza" was 150.00. Well, no way was I going to spend that kinda
money on a "darn" cat. Forget that my daughter loves and can pet and sleep
with and relate to the cat, but as I was shopping for a cheapskate way to
achieve the same benefit, it occurred to me that we spend way more money and
effort to boot, for a bunch of fish that live in the water where we don't
touch them or cuddle with them, or any of that stuff. I know that the fish
do seem to develop a personality of sorts and are also pets, but sometimes
we tend to put that pond in a whole other category that makes it okay to
spend all kind of bucks on it, while we cheap out on lots of other things
that may actally be a lot more sensible.
