Or at least I will be soon. The wife and I are almost through the buying process on a new house with a pond! It’s a small pond, about 1/10 acre and looks to have been built for swimming. I’m very excited to finish the purchase and get to work on making the pond great. Looking to stock some sort of fish for me, get it sorted and clean for swimming for the wife, and get some ornamental and aquatic plants for both of us.

I did work at Lilypons water gardens for a number of years so I have the plants and visual pondscaping covered, but I will be asking about the fish and swimming. Hoping for mostly bluegills with some small mouth bass as well. Glad to be here!
