Topping off the pond

I've never done this in many years of having a pond. Maybe every couple months. Water has always been manageable. Sure it's a lot, but it would make for a healthier pond. I'd disagree with "minimum", though. Most ponders don't manage to change that much, and most ponders don't have serious problems. I suspect that it depends greatly on evaporation (Jan lives in the desert), and fish load. -- derek - Unless otherwise noted, I speak for myself, not rec.ponds.moderated moderators. |
