What is a tsnxrtc? I'm originally from Crookston, Minnesota.

it is a tigershovelnose and a redtail cat cross, i have lived in mn for 19-20 years, i now live in st. paul. i was born in kansas. i tried to put a pic of my tsnxrtc. not sure if it worked, if not there is one in my album.

Holy RED GRAVEL-Thread-Hijack Batman! My eyes hurt now...
TUG-Remember to account for the water being absorbed by your 4 acres of filter media, all the trapped air pockets in the pipes getting filled & whatever water the killer Costa Rican sun is evaporating. It looks great & I hope your kids are swimming soon!
 
We tried lowering the skimmer, but it didn't work. Instead my guy lowered the entrance to the skimmer with a tube. I think we'll end up cutting the tupe and just lower the whole entrance.

Here is an interesting way to build a cement railing. The steel beam will be filled with concrete and then plastered around the sides.

The edge entrance to the pond will be raise about 2 inches to give us some water height.
