Jerry In Maine
I'm watching you...
hi from maine! i'm in the tiny town of Surry, which for those of you familiar with maine is not far from mt.desert island and acadia national park.
my pond is under construction at the moment. it'll hold about 1100 gallons best i can tell so far. bought a hose type water meter so i'll know for sure once i fill it. will be using the home-brewed 70 gal "skippy" biofilter overflowing through a waterfall and a 950 gal/hr mag drive pump.
koi are illegal to have here in maine but we are allowed to have natural species to this area (sunfish, etc) in ponds so once the water and filter get established i'll try adding a few.
my wife and i are really into wild birds so we hope they'll use the pond for drinking and bathing after filling up at the bird feeders.
