Hi

Sand (builders sand i think) has just got washed into our wild life pond
that has newts and frogs. There is a bit of 'froth' on the top of the

water
and we can see some sand at the bottom of the pond. Will it hurt the pond

or
the wildlife?


My VF is seperated into two ponds, an upper and a lower. The wall is made of
sandbags that have ripped and collapsed a bit over time. The net effect is
lots of sand at the bottom of the VF, but no harm to any critters. My
sandbags were of the plastic variety sold at Home Depot.

BV.
