Funny how prophetic my advice was on using sump pumps and to be careful. For reasons I don't know I had electricity in the tank with the fish as I was pumping it out and removing fish via the sump pump. No extension cord connections were in the water. Put my hand in the water to pick up the fish and felt current. Not tremendous but enough to be uncomfortable. Metal ladder though and partially metal pier. I was wearing rubber boots which may have helped me?

No more sump pumps in the ponds. From now on it will be a gas powered pump. Fish aren't worth dying over.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
