Odor detected today
I check my pond temp every other day or so. It is staying in the 70's
since i started partially covering it with cardboard during the day. I can see nearly to the bottom, water looks clear. I have loads of plants and a small fish load. Today i pulled up the thermometer and there was a terrible smell. I didn't think the thermometer reached the bottom, but i could be wrong. I haven't done a water change in a while and will do that tomorrow, but i suppose i am supposed to be vacuuming the pond? I planned to do this this fall anyway, but should i do it now instead or even also? Is this a major red flag and i should act now? I have only goldfish and a 70 gallon pondlet. No filtration, etc. I am also afraid of killing the snails i have in there. I think i am going to set up an aquarium and syphon the vacuumed water through a net and get all the snails i can. Think they will live off of anacharis and algea til next spring? |
