My brother recommended getting some feeder fish from the pet store and putting them in the pond to begin the biological cycle of nitrates and phosphates. I need to sink a few broken clay pots to provide the fish hiding spots from the blue herons and raccoons that will be drawn to the water and an easy food source. The cats should love the feeder fish too. If nothing else it will be fun watching the cats watching the fish. In the spring time I plan on introducing native American fish to the pond, which I must catch since bluegills and bream are not sold in stores.
Already under consideration is a upper pond and waterfall. Just saying.
