Will a 10ft deep pond support more fish than a 6ft deep pond? How can you remove leeches? thx for any help.

There clearly is not enough info here to answer intelligently but greater depths can support more life if the species are selected properly and if you aerate. Fish eat leeches. The only way to control the population of any species in a pond is predators.

leeches are highly vulnerable to bass and bluegill if they have no hiding spots(weeds,rocks, debris on bottom) Remove these items from around your swimming area and you should be fine.

Really the only time depth helps you in a pond is when you have a drought or if your pond collects alot of silt.
