What if it's raining or snowing. Does this have to be under cover?

Good question. These power stations are very commonly used for camping, RV's, etc., but they are not waterproof. Some say water resistant, but still not good to leave out in the rain. They should be covered with a tarp, and kept up off of the ground so they don't sit in a puddle of water. There are covers designed for them as well. They are safe to use indoors, so there is no problem running them in a garage, shed, or even in your living room, and running an extension chord out to your pond equipment.

Never heard such rubbish in such short time. This video spits some facts and connetcts then to total false conclusions. Dont know where to start. But like I bought nike shoes so I run marathon.... like ... what is is the connection between those ? Heating ponds is full non sense. FULL non sense. Cold water contains more oxygen than warm water. Fish go into hyberbation, cold water provides more than enough O2 for this. Ponds NEVER go below 4"C on the bottom (Basic phisics - Density - water). So leaving water at rest at frozen temnperatures is soooo much better for fish. how did evolution do this last few milion years.... true HOAX this video.

I'm OK with visible spots where the pond lining is leaking, however who is the manufacturer/what is the name of the 6" strip with the pre-applied adhesive? I've used the two-sided splice tape/seam tape and it's sticky!! What about the 3M instructions to use the lap sealant/seam caulk over the top of the edges of the seam tape? It's probably overkill but they also have the instruction to "prime" (rough up/take off the shine of the smooth surface of the liner) before applying anything, including the glue. I have found using lacquer thinner does a good job of doing that. Where is the information for the liquid membrane repairs? I don't find the products on your website. And yes!! The EPDM liners are HEAVY!!

I believe much of the confusion regarding channel catfish, bullhead catfish, etc. is a lot of people attribute the algae reducing benefits of Plecostomus, that they have heard about in pet stores, to other types of catfish, and for the most part they do not apply. Plecostomus, btw do not do well when water temperatures get below 50 degrees. Some people do appreciate channel catfish for aquaponics systems however.

Much larger volumes of water, and much larger surface area for water to interact with air/wind. Some bodies of water are also spring fed, or fed by rivers. Nature also balances the environment, as a hopefully balanced ecosystem. There are also fish, turtles, ducks, and other creatures that may also eat many of the plants. None of this usually exists in a man made garden pond. They are often over stocked with fish and or plants, in much smaller environments.

Maybe you can install a small sump pump with a float to turn the pump on or off when the water level rises. So when the water level gets to a set height, the pump turns on to lower the water level. So you don't have to do all the work.

Firestone has a few options for glue/adhesive that usually come in cans. It's labeled "primer". but it is an adhesive. Firestone recommends using with splicing tape (two-sided super sticky) between the EPDM liners where you're joining them and then a seam tape which goes on top of the seam. Finally, Firestone recommends using a "lap sealant" which is basically a special type of caulking to seal where the seam tape and the EPDM liner meet.

I end one day by spreading the last few inches of concrete thin, and leaving it full of "ridges". I poke my fingers in it to leave lots if uneven "holes". Then the next day, I put the new concrete over all of those ridges and holes and continue with my concrete and placing rocks in it. It blends iin well. You can always put a bigger rock in to help camouflage the "seam". But you really won't notice it. I like to use all those ridges and holes, because I feel that it gives the new concrete something more to bond to than a smooth flat surface.
