116) If you build it, they will come! This pic is of hundreds of little tiny tadpoles in a lotus tub. I did not put the frogs there, they just came.

Yes. They all are in pots and have about 3-4 inches of water over the soil's surface. Today's pictured variety bloomed earlier. It is also in water like the others.Beautiful colors. Are they in water?
119) Unlike most pets, fish in your pond do not need attention every day, so you can take a day off and not have a problem.
120) Feeding fish is not really a chore, but it is rather a joy to hear them "smacking their lips" when they are eating the food at the top of the water.
121) Did you know that a pond is anything that holds water and is used for plants or fish or submerged animals, so do not worry about your "bucket pond" or your "fishing pond,"
they are still all ponds!
122) A pond gives you the opportunity to leave your mark for the future, as you could create a new variety of a plant. Pictured here is a new variety of hardy lily. A Mayla hybrid not mine.
124) When you have a pond you can fill it with vibrant colors beneath the surface, such as koi or goldfish, or you can have it lush with blooms from the plants it contains. Here is 1) Tangerine Pink 2) Lavalette Pink 3) Yellow Watermelon. All are hybrids by Mike Giles.

127) You can find answers to the world's struggles in your pond. Today's pic is the hardy water lily "Peace."
129) Remember when you were in middle school and you went to summer camp and your mom had to write your name in your underwear using a permanent marker? Having a pond you can remember those days and the importance of name tags because when you get a plant you think you will never forget the name, but two summers later it's all a forgotten memory!
130) Sometimes it's not just the name, but even descriptions or details are lost in our mind's memory so take pics and write down any information you might have.
