UGH! Where to begin. Okay, I get home from the store today and my husband says "there may or may not be a dead iguana in the pond". So I start freaking, imagining all sorts of dead fish, stinking water, terrible images. We go out to the pond, but its still too green to see all the way down, so I decide to let out some water.
So we start, its a bit of a slow process. SO we come back in, went back out, come back in .... then the kids start fighting. My husband says he's going to take them to the beach. Visions of a nap dance before my eyes.
They leave, I hop in the bed.
Anyone see a problem yet? Yup, the pond is still draining.
I'm trying to nap, but within 30 mins the kids are back. They start making lots of noise playing so I get up and its flashes - THE POND IS DRAINING!!!!!!!!! I run outside (not even dressed), quickly unplug it. The pond has about 1/4 of the water in it.
That was close! With the pond so low I got in took care of some lilies. cleaned it up a bit and am now slowly adding in some water.
Question - I wonder if its dangerous for me to leave it half full over night. I'd like to give that water time to go through the UV and filter several times overnight.
Anyone have any thoughts?? @Meyer Jordan
BTW - there was no dead iguana in the pond. The stupid things play dead like a possum to trick the dogs.
