Tips and Warning

• A fish pond is just like an aquarium. It definitely requires a container and a pond filter, and you must clean the water before you add fish.
• Install your fish pond during spring as it gives plants the optimum time to adjust to their fresh conditions.
• When bringing new fish home, cover the plastic bag in something opaque, like a paper bag. This would lessen the stress on the fish. Introduce the fish to its fresh environment gradually.
• Equalize the water condition by floating the fish in its bag in the pond. Add ½ cup of pond water to the bag water every half hour.
