Bob, thank you and Dave for your valuable time and advice, I look forward to implementing your suggestions and reaping the results. Even more so, I look forward to our exchanging and enjoying some of our "Fruit of the Vine" experiences we have in common. A bit about me...I have the pleasure of managing a 350 ac Conference and Retreat Center in Palo Pinto County, TX for a Christian ministry. We have a small pond that, when full, impounds maybe 2 surface acres of water with a max depth of 12'. We recently had the dam and spillways raised so it will now be around 17' at it's deepest when full. Hopefully, with the increased volume, water exchange rate won't be so much of an issue during our periodic flooding rains here in North Texas. I've had a bit of time this weekend to peruse the forum and can't wait to read even more. I agree with others, the information available to us novices here is invaluable. A huge "Thank You" to all those responsible for making it possible and available. Jerry

I asked Bob about wine making and I got a lot of info; stuff I would never have considered. It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine.
