Here's the PVC tree that tried to drown yours truly...prior to the attempted homicide. Looks harmless enough, eh? Don't let it's appearance fool you - it's a killer!

Wow, that's a serious tree! What is it, 6 feet tall?
It was hardly intentional....Sunil advised me to lick the toad prior to tree installation for "good luck". Thanks buddy - I spent the rest of the day in a padded cell. Definitely owe you one!

Oh, I doubt that it was the trees fault. It looks like a perfectly respectable young tree with it's roots from Home Depot. I expect that TJ sat quite awhile and planned how to make it a really nice condo/sanctuary for Yuppie young fish. To spare it from any foreign substances, he eliminated the use of rebar at its base.
Given the amount of planning and effort needed to make a Brettski type abode, it is possible that the Builder might have stopped several times and enjoyed some type of beverage. I expect that the beverage might have tasted a little bit like charcoal with just a hint of spider web across the back of the tongue.
Now our boy TJ always does things right. I expect that he properly christened the young tree prior to launch. Maybe he even christened it several times. That was one happy young tree. Then, at launch time, it got a look at the left coast type of wierdos that it was going to host; a bunch of whacked out, genetically altered, sexually rearranged, crappies that called themselves Magnolias. Now what kind of young, self respecting (drunk) Midwestern tree wants to hang out with a bunch of guys that pride themselves of having gaping, paper type mouths and say "Just call me Magnolia."?
I don't figure the nice young tree attacked the Builder/Creator. I expect that it was hanging on to keep from being flung into the briar patch.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I am very, very offended by this comment.
You misspelled weirdos.

Though many have not heard of it, I looked into a company called "fishiding" and it has three high-quality products at a price I have not really seen matched by competitors. www.fishiding.com has the products. They all have attached weights, are reclaimed and recycles, have a much smaller needed preparation time, and are less than half of most of the other habitats I found. I recommend it.
yes Graham he has send us some, good product especially in combo with some of the others on the market. It is more dense and I think may do a good job protecting fish. We have some pvc cover we call 'poor man habitat" that I think works well to concentrate fish and a fraction of the cost of others we sale.
Pleas keep us posted on your progress with this. We have tried some of these in local lakes with not much luck of fish moving in. But I am sure in a pond it would be much different and I am considering a few as well.
graham fish.. I bought some of the fishiding cribs and they are killer!! The stuff is wide and grows weeds fast. way better price and helps the environment. check it out while its still cheap.The site is: www.fishiding.com

My Lord, this is hilarious...and I just found it. Excellent work, as ever Mr Davidson.
