I bought a small fountain and I have 3 plants in it with 3 tad poles and 2 fish. I have a Pix if want to send me a message. I am worried that the water is not good water for my fish. My Fiance thinks that the plants are too much dirt for a small fountain or my water garden is needing an oxygen pump to keep the Fish alive. My mom has a similar larger scale water garden with a Fountain, plants and fish the only difference is she has well water and her watergarden is much larger than mine. So do I need an oxygen pump plus my fountain? Should I take the plants out? Or do you think I need to buy bottled water to put in my fountain; or atleast buy the chemical that takes the floride and chlorine out of the water?
Just put plants and fish in my tank last night. Came home from work today my trickler got clogged up with dirt from my plants and somehow my water was dripping out. It wasn’t empty when I got home today but the water level was low. And guess what? I killed 2 tad poles and 2 fish. Maybe I should just stick to plants I can keep them alive. Then I don’t have to be responsible for anything elses death. Wish I could post a pix here, there is one on my 360 page if you want to see what I am working with.

I have 4 raised beds and I want to collect rain water from the roof’s drain pipe so I can conserve water and use that for my garden. Does anyone have any ideas on how this can be done. I’m thinking about buying a big barrel and putting it under the roof’s gutter pipe to collect the water but whatelse can I do and how can I get the water from the barrel to the garden? by the way what kind of barrel do i need? I live in a neighborhood so it has to look good or neighbors won’t like it. Thank you all.

Hello
I live In the Bay Area, California. We get plenty of sun now. I would like to grow some tomatoes and other vestables such as peppers and cucumbers and so on.
How do i get started? I have picked a spot for the garden with the most sun, however, the dirt is not very good there, it’s very dry. How much compost should i mix in and is it too late for me to grow a vestable garden??
