Here's the rules:
In twenty words or less (ALL CAPS), name something you've observed at your pond, or somebody else's, that you think flies in the face of conventional wisdom.
THE UNUSUAL IS WHAT I USUALLY OBSERVE 'AS USUAL' AROUND MY PONDS!

Pick ME! I need to win this.
A LITTLE AQUASHADE AND A LONG ALGAE BLOOM WORKS BETTER AT GETTING RID OF CHARA THAN CUTRINE PLUS GRANULES.
Have a Merry Christmas everyone!

Nate- If you guys are looking for an over weight, corn feed, farmer tanned, norwegian pale skinned, Minnesota boy for the calander, I'm your guy. I think its only fitting, me being from the tundra, that I represent December.

Yes - why not produce a Pond Boss Calander? People could buy it as gifts for Christmas. Use the above picture for a month during hunting season. Is the hat still available for one moderator to wear each year as one of the month's pictures?

How insulting!! You had plenty of room within the rules to insert "intelligent" and "personable" in your sentence...

As observed through my microscope.
A 1/4 ACRE POND CAN GET OVERGRAZED BY MINNOWS, THEY SELECTIVELY EAT THE ZOOPLANKTON AND LEAVE THEIR VEGGIES (PHYTOPLANKTON).
