I've heard that one can actually use human urine to expedite the process of cycling a pond. I've never done this but wonder if anyone has any knowledge on this? It is ammonia that the fish create that starts the cycle so why couldn't one start it w/o the fish in there?
Well I share this......since I am 65 years old..... and raised way out in the country on a cattle farm......those days are gone but......you can’t take the country out of the boy....... so my wife has chastised me many times for using the same place too much...... it will kill plants.....so I think moderation would be in order....lol Jimmy
How big a pond? How big a fish? Small fish perhaps 2 or 3? Nothing more for quite a while until you start seeing nitrates. I’d feel ok there as long as you keep an eye on your parameters.
What type of fish do want to introduce. Personally I would grab a couple of feeders and toss them in. Nothing more for now however. Need to kick things in gear.
