New here, 14 yr old pond, Illinois 5b

[rcoad]

Hello everybody,
I’m new here, but not new to ponding. I recently started an Instagram account for my frogs and pond. I’ve been fielding some questions about ponding and thought I should get back into some forums and refresh my memory on how to do things lest I give out bad info. I DIY built my pond 14 years ago, it’s 17’x 9’ and 2’ at the deepest part. I have a bottom drain into savio skimmer and biofalls. I have goldfish and bullfrogs and plants. I’ll be doing a lot of reading and maybe asking a few questions. Ask me about my frogs, I love them and got plenty of pictures.
