Hey, you guys check my math on this. I was a business major in college and we didn't learn a lot of arithmetic.

OK, 1 inch of water over one acre is approximately 27,000 gallons

Thus, 1/2 acre is 13,500 gallons per square inch.

If we assume an average depth of 6 ft(72 inches) we come up with 72 times 13,500 which is 972,000 gallons.

$7.00 per 1,000 gallons is 7x972 or $6,804 to fill it with purchased water.

Somehow, it feels like I'm missing something. Am I?

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.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
