Yeah, I'm also a slow learner.


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.

Letsrodeo,

You do have some ventilation in that box don't you? Otherwise your pump will heat up too much in the summer. Additionally is this your first crank up. If so you want to pulse it. You may bring up too much anoxic water too fast.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
