 | Revamping an old pond - Advice Please |
billyspans Banned Posts: 59 Kudos: 48 Votes: 0 Registered: 23-Jun-2005   | Hello, I have inherited a pond in my new house that has not held any fish for three years. It is 1.5 metres deep and has a diameter of about three feet. I managed to get the pump working but the pond is full of debris, most notably leaves. What would I need to do to get it to a stage whereby it could house fish? What other fish would I be able to house in there besides Koi? Thanks |

And considering the flag you have showing I'm not sure that guppies or danios or WCMM's ect will manage to winter over with how shallow the pond is. ^_^[hr width='40%'] The life, the love, You die to heal.
