No offense but to the masses. I recommend a licensed electrician especially any where near water.
Do I dare ask.... how are the small leaks?
Is the variable speed pump new? I'd call to get a replacement if you can, as the doesn't restart sounds like more than a weird quirk to me.1. Weird quirk about this variable speed pump: it does NOT restart after a power failure.
Have had a few of those while working on electrical only to realize several hours later that I need to turn it back on.
Workaround is to use the app to set a schedule that runs daily from midnight to 11:59pm. If power is restored when pump is scheduled to run, it will restart. App is a dumpster fire, though.

When do the fish go in?
Then you definitely don't want to mention that they are poop machines. But that matters little once the bio film gets going and becomes slick the ladies will usually call it quits then
Some how and I realy have know idea who Mrs wombat is , but I get the feeling she has never had discussions with the girls about plastic EXPLOSIVES.Ha! A bit of biofilm isn't going to deter the dedicated pond swimmers among us!
And hey, people spend good money for "fish pedicures" and "icthyotherapy"; getting nibbled on by tiny fish is actually kind of fun! Just need to make sure the nibblers aren't overly toothy.
looks stunning!!Well, we suddenly have crystal clear water.

Picture doesn’t do it justice. Y’all know how it is. I can count the pea gravel sitting on the sand 4.5’ deep.
Don’t know the cause of our good fortune. I did turn the pump up a few hundred rpm a few days ago. That’s the only correlation I can make. Haven’t made any other changes. Still no plants. Kid/mom go swimming almost daily. Been hot/dry/windy.
Also noticed that my little bubbler fountain is splashing a bit outside the liner. Only noticed it in just the right sunlight.
