Our pond has been doing fine for about 1 year, 3 coi, 4 gold fish and
several frogs moved in so we now have about 300 tadpoles. But, we are
finally getting around to getting a water softner system. They work by
addind salt to the water, so when I add water to bring the pond level
back up, do I need to worry about salinity? Pond is about 1400 gallons
and the level drops about an inch every couple of weeks.

Softeners do other things to the water that isn't that great for fish, by
pass the softener for the pond. ~ jan
