The Pond Thread

Sieve has cleaned up the free floating debris, seeing clear to the bottom is great. Now the shade's gone up, as water column algae has started to grow, clouding things up.
Hello, my water puppies!

Koi didn't want breakfast....
What could that mean?!?

Spawning! It means spawning time was in the works! Brought some into the house.
Should hatch in 4 days, then be free swimming in 10 days.

That's a relief. I expected you to say it was sick and dying.

Who are the moms & dads?
I can tell you! Or, show you!
Can't ID who is mom vs dad, though.

Pretty non-venomous garter snake. I think fish can be on their diet. I like having them around, saw one eating a mouse. You probably feel differently.

I'm hoping its eating the annoying giant frogs and toads.
