Evaporation
We're finally getting some rain-free days and even enough sun to cause
more evaporation than I would have expected. One hundred gallons in three days from two ponds whose surface areas together are less than 150 square feet. Does that seem suspiciously high and perhaps caused by something other than normal loss. Ruth Kazez |

Evaporation
Do you have a lot of plants? Some can be very thirsty, or divert water
outside the pond with their leaves. It sounds like a lot in three days to me. I would look for water splashing out or (hopefully not) a leak somewhere. "rtk" wrote in message ...
