Wells are seldom the answer to pond problems. One acre ft of water is 326,000 gallons of water. Just one inch over an acre is about 27,000 gallons. Think about just how effective a well has to be to make a difference. Calculate the cost of electricity.

BTW, that one acre foot weighs 2.718 million pounds.

NOTE: That statistic and lots more money saving pieces of info are in Lusks book "Perfect Pond...Want One?".

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.
