[QUOTE="thendrix, post: 932104, member: 17297"] I wish we could feed it. We've got enough to keep an army giong I believe. My grandpa tried the grass carp thing a few years ago but the pond moves so slow and theres so little oxygen in the water that they all died out before they could make a diffrence. The spring that feeds this pond used to have enough water for 3 houses and this pond and it moved enough and had enough oxygen that there were some nice blue gill in it. But when the spring all but dried up or got turned due to construction or whatever, in came the duck weed. It didn't help that there was a chicken house about 300 feet away with its fans pointed, you guessed it, straight at the pond. Nitrogen rich water = duck weed/algae. I would like to get this stuff killed and put in a pump so that maybe we could fish it again someday. [/QUOTE]
