    Questions about Ponds, Tapwater Topups, & Dying Frogs - Ranavirus

    Perhaps there needs to be more plants and hiding places for the tadpoles so whatever is catching them has a much harder job But only a very small % survive anyway to keep everything in balance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    planting in a pond

    You can use anything you want It makes no difference I would suggest having some holes in it so if you have to lift it out it drains so it’s not too heavy to move Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Urgent help required

    You can try the paint It may stick to the wood or it may not you will have to test it The only other options are to remove the sleepers or cover then with something such as the paint or if that doesn’t stick then the only other thing I can think of is to use cement and render the sleepers...

    Journal Gold fish pond and summer house

    A raised pond gets colder than s sunken one So a 24” deep pond above ground will be to cold for fish in winter Even goldfish need 36” Unless you remove the fish during the winter months A bottom drain is not overkill Yes it has to go somewhere They are not expensive use 2” on small ponds...

    What’s SWA ? Should be able to pick up a skimmer from any decent koi place I’ve used one in the past with a floating weir on it Worked a treat as I had a separate pump on it just with a Venturi return to add extra flow The filter was fed from bottom drains for most of the year then in winter...

    The only problems with mixing twin tail and single tail goldfish together are the single tailed ones are much quicker to the food so you have to make sure they all get enough The worst problem is if the twin tailed fish are female then they can easily be pushed around by single tail males...

    My first pond (edit: 12 months later May 2012)

    Re: help setup my first pond If you are going to keep fish in it over winter I'd remove the pump and run a small air pump having the airstone about 6 inches below the surface not on the bottom so an aquarium air pump will do or at least raise the pond pump off the bottom as much as possible and...

    My first pond (edit: 12 months later May 2012)

    Re: help setup my first pond Instead of trying to hang the baskets why not just buy taller baskets ? You can use anything that gives you the right height ie plastic buckets or bins, You've gone completely OTT with pump and filter, whoever sold it you should be ashamed The pond is too shallow...
