What a fantastic day in New England 73 degrees puffy clouds, light breeze, and the sun is behind the new leaves popping on the trees. All while sitting at the pond watching the water dance on the umbrella.

Sad day I rehomed 3 fish I have had almost from the beginning of the pond. And another 5 babies. I get so many babies each year i've decided since they wont stop reproducing . That I'm going for the high end fish and see what we get, I have already sold some of the babies in the past but nothing special I have stingily kept the best. This coming week the new members are comin home.

Digging out Rush, washing and tossing into pond. Made a second trip, so much, but shrinks once cleaned. Lol
Way too expensive to buy them!
Every red mark is rush. A lot more further back.

one thing you can do to prevent transfer of unwanted is to do a potassium pergonite dip. That should look pretty cool leave a few channels like a stream running through the bog
