you can´t melt thicker ice on a pond with hot water - would take hours if at all ...Use hot water to melt ice, not smash it ...
what´s going on @ THE POND ? ! ?
hello pondlovers
Hard to believe it's been 4 years since I dug that beauty.
It is now mature and teeming with life both animal and vegetable ...
:x... The frogs are sadly somewhat diminished by our new cat.
He is a lively young chap who is very good at catching them.
He leaves dead ones all over the lawn
(plus the occasional dead or dying squirrel or pigeon too).
Use hot water to melt ice, not smash it. Fishies get scared and die.
