Should be good spawning areas for the fatheads, grass shrimp and crayfish. Frogs are already doing phenomenal

Great pics! Fantastic planting of emergents. Will provide a 'Happy Place' for many specie.

is anybody else not able to see any of the images?

Sweet setting, looks like all species will be set up well and fat/sassy!

Zep, they're just links to imageshack. Not sure what the problem could be.

Thanks everyone. There are some rock piles along the shore that cant be seen as well. Also a few deep piles of cinder blocks/bricks.

What kind of plants are those on the ponds edge?

looks great, I'm jealous!

SP, the ones in deepest water look like arrowhead to me.

Zep, I had the same problem, but then a banner said something about windows blocked content, click here to view blocked content. I clicked, and the images showed up.

Duck potato based on their density?

RAH, I've never heard of Duck Potato, so I looked it up. Turns out it's a broader leaved variant of Arrowhead. I learned something this morning.

I have some regular Arrowhead, and love it as a bog plant.

We have both arrow arum and duck potato. The arrow arum is harder to establish and does not seem spread by seed for me. The duck potato runs rampant, which works fine for me too. I have all natural edges to my ponds and wetlands.

RAH, good to know. I was hesitant to venture a guess since Lukkyseven's in Maryland, but so far, Arrowhead seems to be something I'll be happy with.

Oh, Lukkyseven, beautiful pond.

I can gladly take some close ups of them if that helps with identification. I originally took pictures when the plant wasnt fully developed and was told it was Arrowhead. I bought this pond and everything thats planted was already here. It has some heavy under water grass as well, but I really like the way its all coming together. It makes it very hard to fish from the shore (which I'm okay with).

Can't see jack, Zep. I even logged in via facebook as it offered and still nothing - just wanted me to upload my own pics. I'd love to see lukkyseven's pics from what I'm reading here, but no dice for some reason.
