What about potato casserole 1 bag of frozen shredded hashbrown thawed, 1 cup melted butter 1 three cup pack of shredded cheese, 1 can cream of chicken soup, 1 small thing of sour cream. Mix it all together bake in casserole dish around 375 usually takes 45 mins. or till it starts browning. For about a 5 min. prep time it taste great and everyone loves it.

You could also put a string up around the pond a few inches high since they land close and then walk in. Since their legs bend foward instead of bending like ours they can't get over the string.

Yes the Asagis will go in there . I am going to keep my 2500 gallon and use it as a breeding pond. We are gonna break it down and add a bottom drain and I am gonna put the asagis back in there till they breed. Of course I have some others that I want to breed as well but I want to breed them first.I can not wait to add water, and get it going.

4 ft. deep 16ft. wide and 24 ft long. we are having to do the blocks to make it even all the way around. As you can see it will be 1 block high on the far end and down here at the deck it will be three high.
There will be a roof that connects from the house covers both ponds and it will be screened in . We are going to place tile around them instead of rock and it will have a waterfall.

And I will third what Karen and Amanda said.
Esther could you run a water hose to the pipes and see where they run to, more than likely the rubberbaid tanks were used as settlement tanks if they have holes for the pipe, who knows it may not be that bad once you get it drained. From the looks of it it seems like the prev. owners mat have been trying to take as much with them as they could when they left. But if the liner holds water and the pipes are there and hey that pump may even work even though it was setting outside the pond. You might even drain it and find fish. Do you have any idea how deep it is? It may only need a filter, and that could have been what the rubbermaid tanks were for is a bog filter. The pipes may be from bottom drains, keep us posted.
