Thanks, Fishy!!! I still will feel more comfy not to send any plants from that pond until I know for certain. Yes, it's very possible a fish died, and the problem started with the decaying fish. Found another very decayed fish on the bottom of the pond, only ribs and some flesh left. Then there also was a larger fish that was under the basket that the bubbler aerator is weighted onto, might have gotten into the milk crate when I dropped it, and I didn't see it, or got in there and couldn't get out. Need to not use those anymore for larger fish. Ho hum .... good news is the white fish is still there, looks much better. Didn't see the 2 fantails, so not certain about them. At least I didn't find them dead. Things still don't seem to be normal, though. Didn't trickle the water all night, but AM doing it today. Wanted to set up a pipe to make the draining water go away from the pond edge quicker, instead of draining slowly at the outside pond wall. Also since didn't do the trickle water change last night, not going to do any water tests this morning, don't have time. My life this week is "don't have time" for just about everything I had planned to do. Not sure why I waited until the last week to get few things done. Oh, wait, that's what I do!!! :blueflower: Most of the things on my "to-do" list didn't have to be done, so it's ok. Just that I wanted things more "perfect" for when my sister and her family arrives on Fri. Oh well, such is life!
