I saw this and thought- those expensive fish are soon going to be Egret/Stork/Racoon/Otter/Birds of prey..food. And I'm sure some stalker is planning a late night raid seeing hundred dollars bills everywhere in that pond.
It also is one way to turn a large pond that has clear water into a turbid pond with those aquatic plants devoured soon.
I have been through all that. Even a 100,000 gallon pond with security guards caught a few people trying to fish large Koi out of a Museums pond where I worked.
If it works out? Fantastic. But every other natural pond like that on youtube had either given up because of Cormorants or in the end to keep fish- covered the whole pond in netting,poles,criss crossed. And those wont stop Racoons.
But forget all that and notice that day one looks great.
