sure am, though in almost 9 years, I've only noticed 2 jumps in Mr. T's early years.
still contemplating that one though.

I'd say it's worth weighing up that risk, my polypterus jumped last year and it was gutting. A net may go a long way

It sure is Hendre.. Might end up with a horizontal frame with net.
The other part is shade, which is also still being discussed. If a roof goes over it, then there'll be nets around the sides.

Not been around for a while but it's great to see your progress on this

Update video ?

 

[Luc70]

Well, nothing much to update right now.. Pond is still greenish and the feeders are seeding the pond, but with the corona-crisis, while we're still operational here, everything that's not directly necessary to get done is delayed

Getting ready to move the fish this Sunday.




There'll be planters all around. Some Passion flower and other climbers to get it all covered.
This should help well to keep the fish in and out of direct sun.

Cheers,
Luc

I'm amazed at the effort that's being put into this pond. Looking great.

 

[Luc70]

Ironically, it’s much less effort than his current pond took, which was pretty hard work

 

[Luc70]

that’s the crew going to move it.
