Yes but I could do without an empty pond this week!
Just what you don’t need! Will the fresh water cause problems too? The pond before was well established and in equilibrium; you might need a straw bail, or maybe it’s barley – I’m not an expert.
Hi Christina, so far so good. We have a lot of lily plants which should help the water.
I bet your heart sank as you realized what was happening. I hope the fishes and the plants all recover quickly. You will definitely need your mucking boots nearby.
On the bright side: at least it happened when it did, and not on the day of the open garden.
Hi Jane, Just what I thought!
Oh no! Good job you noticed when you did. It looks beautiful though.
The agony of last-minute challenges! Good luck on the big day.
Oh my! That happened to a client’s koi pond, and drained all but the last two feet or so of water. Miraculously, ALL the koi were fine. Once the water was replenished, they were swimming about as if nothing had happened!
Thanks Tony. Much the same here but only goldfish not carp.
