Default Leaves in Pond


Well, most folks probably use skimmers and/or netting. My solution is
water fern/azolla to catch the leaves, then i just pick them off.

A question: I have lots of trees in my yard and every Fall the

fall and some fall right into my little pond. I try to scoop them

out but
since the leaves keep falling I just leave the leaves alone in the

pond
until the next Summer when the pond water is warm and I can stick my

arms in
it and pull out the leaves. The fish seem to like the leaves as it

gives
them hiding places. Anyway, my question is - are leaves poisonous to

pond
fish? I recently heard leaves are poisonous to fish but they don't

seem to
have hurt my fish or the five little frogs that just jumped out the

pond
this weekend.
