My 2 cents
Your pond maybe a little too small. I have a 6' X 4' oval pond in my backyard. The depth is about 2 feet. 1. You can buy pond liner kit from Costco, around $200-$300. 2. You need to buy water pump to filter the water and to create fountain. That's about $80. 3. In summer, you need UV light filter to kill/control algae, otherwise, in a hot summer day, your pond turns dark green in just a few of hours. Especially if you want to have some fishes in the pond. Cost is around $150. And you need to plug it in 24/7. 4. Don't even think about keeping fishes in your pond in winter, 2-3 feet of water will freeze all the way to the bottom. You need at least 6 feet deep if you really want to. But with 6 feet of water, pond liner is not enough because of the weight of water...you need concrete. My solution is to scoop the fishes back and keep them indoor in a fish tank and dump them back in the pond once the temperature is around 15 degree. Try feeders first because they are dirt cheap. Don't spend too much on Koi, as you might just be throwing your money into the water. |

绿藻在天热的时候会长的很快,一天就能把你的池子变绿变臭。我第一年没经验,三天之内所有的鱼都死了,可能是缺氧的缘故,不过因为都是很便宜的feeder,所以倒也是不心疼。后来加了UV过滤,池水再也没变绿过,鱼也没再死过。 说道猫,没错,我家邻居的猫就经常来小池塘边看鱼。。。 |

去年冬天不冷,没几天水完全冻住的情况
即使水面有冰冻上了,也最多只有半寸而已。前两年我试过拿6寸长的钻头都钻不到水,冰面上站人都没问题。再观望你的一年看看,今年先懒懒。
