The little hole that could...

[addy1]

Plants really help to clear it up!

I think that has been the difference. I now wish I'd gone bigger on the bog.... (And so it begins.... Lol) Although I still have plenty of pond room for plants.

 

[addy1]

I made mine huge, so I would not wish it was bigger.............

Some updated pictures from this morning..

 

[addy1]

You should always post the ugly hole picture with your new and updated ones!

 

[tbendl]

The then and now. I really wish I had taken more before pictures so I could replicate the shots from the same place.
Ah well...

 

[addy1]

Well even if not from the same spot it sure is a difference! If I recall right you were talking of just filling it in....................

They are getting fat! I have used less than a 1/4 can of food since I put the fish in. My hubby used over 1/2 the can IN 1 WEEK! I need to post a thread asking about the fish feeding and it's relation to gunking up the pond and babies. I just got back from Indiana and started school today so I will be crazzzyyy busy.
On a side note, the new pond you did looks fabulous!

 

[addy1]

Feed them off and on, they have lots of food in the pond. Give dear hubby measured amounts lol!

Too much food and you get green stuff growing.............excess nutrients!

Thanks the new little pond is doing good, no leaks, a lot safer than that preform
