I’ll follow along on this one, as my pond is surrounded by oaks and hickories also. It seems like there are tons of them coming down. Quite often the wind will push them all against one end. Later evaluation it doesn’t seem like there’s that many leaves there. I’ve sampled the bottom in various places, and I’m not finding that much build up of leaves. Actually, I was thinking I needed aeration to help break up all the leaves. My pond is only 3.5 yrs old, so it hasn’t had a lot of time to build up, but I’m just not thinking the problem is as bad as I originally suspected.
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep. RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these. I think that's about all I should put in my little pond. Otter attack in 2023
