Everything one needs to know about a water garden is here: selecting a site, construction, building a waterfall, safety and water-quality tips, pumps and filtration, and prevention of algae. There is advice on caring for water plants and fish, a list of recommended water depths for hardy water lilies, and a fish-care calendar for temperate climates. There is a chapter on insects and crustaceans and one on such pests as ducks and geese, beavers, muskrats, voles, opossums, raccoons, turtles, crayfish, frogs, and toads. There's also advice on cleaning and maintaining a pond. This practical guide is illustrated throughout with color photographs.
160 pages, Softcover. Color photos through out the book. 8 ½" x10" size.
