Othel I have added and subtracted things to my pond over 20 years and the quote from stickem is really true. I was going to add crayfish to my pond for some weed control, and since I don't have any predators to control the crayfish, I was warned by one of the pond experts that the crayfish might take out my tough spatterdock lilies that I use to draw in birds for photography. Just one mistake can change a pond, and years you have spent making it the way you want it to be.
