This would be bad for the aquarium hobby.Please check this pending legislation out at http://www.pijac.org/files/public/US_HR_69.pdf
This Might be a good link to send to all of your pet-owning friends as it addresses the issue from a pet-owner perspective and is a little more entertaining than the normal legal alerts. This has some very compelling statistics […]
Edgar,
Ducks on the pond sound great, but doesn’t that create problems? Ducks do a lot of pooping. Wouldn’t that force you to do more water changes? I know that manure has a lot of nutrients that are good for land plants. I’m not so sure it’s a good idea in a […]
I am happy to announce my resident ducks have just splashed down on my pond. A sure sign of Spring.
I was worried about them coming back because last year the female had a hurt wing and couldn’t fly but nevertheless managed to hatch 10 chicks including one pure yellow […]
Hello All, All of my new fish are young, four inches or less. They seem to be very skittish. When ever any one approaches the pond they scatter and hide. Even when I am feeding them they wait till they are alone to eat. Is this normal???

I just tested my pond water for the first time this Spring. I have not changed any water since I shut down the pond in the Fall, except, of course, for snow and rainfall. I really expected to get some pretty bad results. However, every parameter tested zero. Ammonia was 0.25 […]
Hello All,
I’m Colleen. I have a small koi pond and my local pond store closed and my pond guru left with it. I’m looking for a place to ask questions and help you with what I’ve done and know from my experiences…. which may not be much….. but I’m willing to try.
My pond […]
I promised that I would post the advice my local pond supplier has for opening a pond in the Spring. Here is the text from an email they recently sent around. This place also offers free seminars on the topic. Of course, there is an ulterior motive on their part. They […]
