Its not where i'd like it to be,i'd like it over near the garden shed ,buts its to shady.but since garden ponds need 4 to 6 hours of sunlight to grow plants that flower in them that wont happen..Also they say koi and plants dont mix,well i had both before and the koi were distructive,pulling my plants out of their pots(big mess) at times.
But koi are so friendly! they say guppies are good to keep mosquito larva down,but from my brother experience with them in a fish tank many years ago,their great for making way to many babies.
The sun is trying to come out,in between clouds. I sure hope it stays out eventually today.
Ive read several articles on water gardens and some seem scary as far as size , about not putting rocks in the pond,and so forth,whether galvanized stock tanks will rust over time and so forth.The kind of articles written to lure you away from building one,thats not a kit.
Guess i'll just do the best i can and hope for the best!
Dont know if ill be outside today or not ,depending on weather,keeping fingers crossed.
