I *might* have access to a 100x50 ft mudpond about 4 ft deep over the summer, it's on a very good friend's property and is less than 30 mins away from my house! :cheer:
My questions are:
There are a TON of aquatic salamanders (the um word n e w t is censored?????:confused:)and frogs in this pond, I have never seen any bullfrogs except for this one MASSIVE one that was at least 12" in girth which worries me a bit, but I haven't seen one that big for a while.
Besides the bullfrogs, which I know are bad for the koi, is there anything I should worry about with the salamanders? They are only poisinous in their eft stage I believe. :yes:
Also the pond has quite a thick layer of leaf litter and I've seen a bunch of odd bugs in there like worms and such. Is this leaf litter bad and should I try to get it out (which will be a big task! :eek1:)
