Default Are water changes really necessary?

So far the Pond-o-vac is being temperamental. I'm hoping we just have
to get used to each other.

============================
Another reason I stopped using the vac to remove the mulm on the bottom was
newts and small frogs were getting killed when sucked up. They don't survive
the trip through to the tank. Small fish are injured beyond saving. I
always have these small creatures in my ponds.
