The thing is, I already have a pond on my property. The original owner had it dug out and filled.
As far as I can tell, other than dumping in some blue dye, there was never any real maintenance done.
I already have the frogs, toads, snakes, mosquitoes...
I've added an aeration system, which helped, but I'd like to "take it to the next level". Am I expecting "swimming pool" clean? No, not at all. I'd like to get, and keep, it as clean - and natural - as possible. The NSP idea looks like a good idea.
If I'm going to landscape around the pond anyway, why not make the whole thing work together as beneficially as possible?
