..BTW, I keep in close contact with MSDS people who disclose
whats in the "pond"chemicals so as to use the every day products instead of
Pond-blah-blah for whatever.......Try pond bacteria for jump starting your
bio filter at $27.00 a small jug, and get a $4.00 box of
Rid-ex..........Check the chem's & ingrediants.........Same beneficial
bacteria breaks down sludge & algae to good stuff.......Same outcome.....My
fish in my 790 gal test pond are still ok...... No salt (occurs naturally)
No algae-fix....Just barley straw, Same chemical there......Don't need
"aquatic" plants, anything will grow in a body of water thats not chemed to
death....Anything...Roses are up and blooming, Thuja looks enormous right
now, Marigold seeds are just starting to sprout, and hostas have gone mad in
my bio-filter......Columbine and Petunias are starting to crawl and
Periwinkle is just starting to fold from early March bloom......Try
it............

Roses in the Veggie Filter? Am I understanding you correctly?
And... You used Rid-Ex in a pond with fish? ~ jan
