turtle in a koi pond
"Dan Robinson" wrote in message t... Thanks for all the responses so far. In my koi pond I would build a small floating area that he would be able to climb onto. Something like an old partially submerged log anchored to the middle of the pond. Unless the turtle could get a running start and learn to jump it is unlikely that he would be able to use that as a way to hop out of that pond ;-) As to hurting koi that is my main question. In the tank he is currently living I placed a few gambusia and a bullfrog tadpole. So far he seems to ignore them. I think he has consumed a fair number of smaller snails I tossed in there. =========================== A baby slider found our smaller 880+ pond and ate the same pellets the fish ate. He grew like crazy. We released him in a the nearby lake the following year. -- RM.... Frugal ponding since 1995. rec.ponder since late 1996.
