Or rather, it's a rainy day, and it's Monday. But always lots to think about pondwise. The bulbs are beginning to bloom and I can see them nicely without going outside. It's lovely that a pond can give such pleasure rain or shine; indoors, or out.I'll be inside today. But I did venture out to give the fish some breakfast. Yup, now that the bio filter is chugging away, and the water temperature has risen above the requisite 39F, they are quite happy to chomp down a 1/2 handful of spring food twice daily. In summer during major growth periods they'll eat 4 times that much.
Got the rain barrel filling today: fantastic! because next up for the pond is the first of 4 25% water changes. I prefer to use the rainbarrel water to refill it. No water treatment required, and no cost!
