[...] 7/26/2008: This is what is called a water garden, and in comparison to last year, I think this year fishpond is very healthy, as you can see the beautiful floating water plants [...]

Hi Salat, thanks for the compliment; I thought you might like something like this. I’m glad that we’re miles apart, otherwise I might have to keep eyes on you, and your turtle, my fishes are making enough damage on these lily leaves as it is.

Beautiful pond! I like the first picture of the blooming water lily. Our pet turtle would love to munch on all those green stuff.

My oldest sister told me that it looks like a bathtub; I guess the rectangular shape does somewhat give that appearance but I like the clean straight-line looks. I’m glad that you think it’s beautiful; you always have eyes for stuff like this.

Extremely beautiful pond. You’re absolutely a green thumber. Very useful information!

Waiting for an update on the pond and got it as promised. Thanks.

Hi K, It’s very relaxing to watch these fish swimming and hearing the water at the same time. This is my first big project in a long time, I’m thinking about adding another level to this next year, sort of waterfall cascading down.

Since you live in a city, if you like fish, beta fish are easy to care for and the males are colorful and beautiful, but the females are a bit plain Jane (that didn’t make sense to me, should be the opposite.)

I love fishbowls, gold fishes, aquariums & anything that lives in water.

I am an aquarian – now that explains. Nice pond btw.

Hi Karmadiva, I’m too embarrassed to take credit for the water lily plants; they just take care of themselves. Last year I had them in a small pond, surprisingly they survived the winter months because the pond was not that deep and it was sheet of ice on top in December and January. I was able to separate it into 2 plants and my younger sister gave me 2 more lily plants after I completed digging my pond. It’s very relaxing to be around the pond.

Wow Ginger! I am so impressed with your fish pond! I can’t believe the water lily is alive and blooming! They are my favorite flower!You definitely have a green thumb! My thumb is so black I’m afraid to even touch any plants! I’ve killed cacti, bonsai, and so many other plants that it would take forever to list it here! Yes, many plants have fallen victim to my black thumb! I even had a koi pond before but my friend’s kids threw rocks at the fish murdering my poor fishies! When I went outside, I thought it strange that the fishes were swimming upside down until I looked at the kids guilty faces! Needless to say my friend did not get too many invite to my house! Learn from my mistakes! Don’t leave trust any kids near your fish!
