Quite admirable Jac, I imagine it is quite an undertaking not to mention the work involved.
I hope you don't feel I was too hard on the fish in my posts above but you asked for an honest opinion.
The one thing I can't stand is when some water gardener posts pictures of her pond pigs (I mean fish so ugly you would be loath to feed them to your cats) and all the others on the board fawn over them and say how nice they are (retch).
Mind you what you have achived in a single season is a far cry from those. Naturally you have room to improve but you are on the right path without a doubt
