Hi Drinda
I can't wait either..it will be sweet when it gets flowers. There are two snakes, and I think they have made a home under the pond, which is sitting on wood above the ground. I see them come from under there. With the rain we have had in the last week, flooding, etc....I doubt he's looking for a drink! The only fish in there right now are two albino long finned bristle nose plecos. I found a female clown killifish in there the other day, that I thought was long gone. There was a male too, so he may still be in there. I caught her and brought her back into the tank she came from. After putting them in there I felt it was a mistake. I am getting some more fish this coming week for the pond, so stay tuned for updates.

Your container pond is beautiful. It's so cool that you're providing a home for little frogs.

Very nice! Do you have any issue with mosquitoes? How are the plants underneath getting any light?

Hey, thanks. No mosquitoes, I have het formosas breeding in the pond. There are also a few paradise fish. I think the plants underneath must get light as the upper leaves move. They must, because they are still green and even some red.

Your sunset c looks great! That weed actually doesn't look that bad either for being a weed.

Thank you. Check it out, not a weed.

Besides, weeds are plants too...right?
