The house we bought in NE TN came with a fish pond. I'm going to guess about 125 gallons +/- . It's about as long and deep as two 55 gallon drums. This past Feb when I went up to do some remodel work on the Kitchen I strolled outside and saw that the pond was covered with leaves from the big maple in the back yard. I really didn't think I was going to find anything in the pond but debris so I left it alone. About a month or so ago I finally got around to having time to start on the pond. I noticed 3 golden orange fish swimming around. The pond had become overgrown with lilly pads. I decided to remove the leaves and about 4/5ths of the pads covering the pond. I was really concerned I was going to kill the fish by stressing them out. I wanted to catch and remove them but they didn't cooporate. Anyway, about a day after, when most of the silt had settled, there were now about a dozen fish of various sizes. There is still considerable work left to do. The previous owners had neglected the pond and I want to fix it so to speak. Any place in particular you go or have gone to for information? Also, any experience of your own you can share would be great.
