Spring is coming...And of course not in a good way...
Went back to Shareholders Pond today. Two dead frogs, but fish are happy.
The minnow parade came up for food. One or more frogs scurried down into the much. The water is already greening up a bit. I can't believe the algae are already ready. As soon as the VF melts, I may get ready to fire up the old pump. BV. www.iheartmypond.com |

BV. www.iheartmypond.com Did I mention that part about the bad way? It appears my only out door outlet is dead. *sigh* The pump keeping a hole in the ice is now not running. Thank god for the warm weather. Looks like I will be trenching sooner then I thought. BV. |

We need to embrace our algae. BV. It is pretty amazing stuff. There's a building near me that has a leaky drain pipe. The water running out of the drain has frozen to the side of the building, but there's algae growing under the ice up against the bricks. I guess what heat escapes the building is enough to keep it going right under the ice. Jacqui |

BV, if your outdoor outlet has -- or is connected to -- a GFI, have you
tested it? We nearly drove ourselves crazy trying to figure out which circuit breaker had flipped, only to discover that one of the kitchen GFI outlets hadn't been reset correctly.

With that in mind, my pond is currently fueled by a day glow extension cord that is 100' long. It runs on the ground past my sliding glass door (danger one), across the deck stairs (danger two), across the main walk way (danger three) and along the neighbors fence behind the landscaping (not so dangerous). And there is no GFI on this circuit. OK, flame away...I deserve it. BV. www.iheartmypond.com |
