Steve, I knew I would end up doing something wrong before it was over with, Its hard to understand somethings when I dont know a thing about mud pond construction. The 4 inch pipe construction is what a local farmer told me to do as this is how he gets air in all his ponds, He has a sweetwater air blower that he uses to get air to all his ponds and he uses a sweetwater air blower for seven ponds. So that is why I had the pipes put in that way. Since reading about disease I am going to cap off the pipes and take a different route. I can use the pipes to transfer water in good conditon to other fry ponds if need be but I would still have to use a pump, so like you said I can buy a long hose and transfer that way. I must be lost some where, I thought i was going about it right by not transfering water form one pond to the other to help control my ponds, if I use the 4 inch pipes that are in the grownd and I mess up one pond wont it mess up all of them.
Ranskye, I am not worred about being able to pay electric bills, I just dont want to do something wrong and it end up costing me more than it should. I am going to do what steve has suggested and get a half hourse power pump to start out with and then upgrade. I realize that I wont be make large amount of money at the start
