New filter media
We have a 2000 gal pond that has a 3 barrel filtration system. One of
the medias we were using , the mattridge type stuff, finally gave up the ghost. it couldn't be cleaned, was falling apart, so we replaced that barrel with SpringFlo like one of the other barrels. Sure wish we'd done it sooner, we can see fish now, YAY. The water is clearing rapidly!! Spring-Flo rocks. But I have to go see if the tancho is still missing. This fish is too beg for bullfrog food, over a foot long, and isn't floating, so that's good news. We've been having a terrible algae problem this year, and I pray this is mostly the end of it!! Going out to feed the babies, toodles, Nan |

Both of these fish were in the pond for years before this happened. The tancho is over 10 years old. How disappointing. Anyone else have this happen,....or know why it happens?? Nan in DE |
