The water is pretty green, theres algea everywhere and the bottom is covered in oak leaves....but we don't have any oak trees within sight of the pond...how did that happen? Anyways, we scooped out the bottom, got the pumps running, checked on the plants, I changed some water and my mom (against my wishes) added an algea killer. It looks like most, if not all, of the fish made it. We lost three frogs who we found at the bottom....luckily most of them made it though, they're out in full force and super friendly. Theres one that will just sit there and let me pick it up. Anyways, thought you might like some pics.

The waterspill thingie all covered in gook:



My school of goldfish...and to think, I only bought 6 of them:


One of the mama fish...she used to be mostly orange, now she's white and I'm pretty sure she's blind:


Frogs! I counted at least 9 of them:

That's quite a school you've got there... they got pretty busy!!

Your frogs are huge! Very cool.

That was actually me that wrote that. Silly Thomas leaves himself logged into Koko's on MY computer!!!

I like that big, fat shubie in the goldfish school. Reminds me of my shubukin Fuzzy.

I am so happy for your fish. My overwintering ended in catastrophy...
Do the frogs go well with the fish?
We don't want frogs in our pond, we take them down to the lake...

Your pond is great! And your fish all look nice and plump, and some look huge.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

Nice pond. Mine has been running for about two weeks. I didn't lose any fish all winter and our two frogs that hibernated made it. I'll have to post some new pics. I just put the lighthouse out this past weekend. Of course, do we have a frost warning tonight so plants will have to be covered.Since ponds breed insects having frogs is a great way to naturally help with getting rid of bugs. I have never had a problem with the frogs.

Glad everything is going well..looks like a fun pond

Looks Great! Nice big school of fish - and friendly frogs! I love it!
