I'm having a 2/3 acre circular pond being built. There are a solid wall of trees 60' - 80' tall around 3/4 of the perimeter and 20' approx from edge and would cost to much to remove farther back. Just wonder in the fall when all the leaves come down I know a lot will end up in the pond. Anyone know if the decaying leaves in the pond will affect the water quality/fish or is it not a big deal?
Jack of all trades but master of none.

Most will tell you that having another source of organic material filling in your ponds every fall is not what you want, and I would agree. Having said that however, my ponds are ringed by mature trees that have been dumping leaves for 40+ years now, and while I'm positive they are shallower now than when they were first dug, I still haven't had any issues.

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1) And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1) Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT? PB answer: It depends.
