I am an active member of many forums. I find that the best way to
learn about the hobby is by working closely with other ponders. I post
tons of great articles and links on http://www.richdeer3pondsupplies.com
. If you know of any great links please let me know.

I do indeed sell koi and live plants in season and a full line of pond
supplies year round. I am always adding new products to the website.
Even if you don't see it listed I can get almost anything if you call
or email me.I have a smaller lot so my dream large pond isn't
possible. So I just keep adding small ponds each year. It does limit
me to fancies instead of koi. I love having a 140 gallon stock tank
pond in the living room over the winter. It's too cold for fancies in
the Iowa weather. I can't wait for Spring. I have over 200 varieties
of flowers in 18 raised beds.

I am the newsletter editor for the Central Iowa Water Garden
Association and a member of the Eastern Iowa Pond Society.

Waiting for Spring, Gail

Welcome Gail, do tell us more about your set up. Fancies? As in fancy
