Thank you Tootsie, we just purchased this place last May and we have been cleaning up the pond. I've still got to dive in and thin out many unknown yellow and pink waterlilies that the previous owner grew.

My koi are still at our other house in the pond and luckily I have no problems with them other than tossing a few rocks out of the pots and a few nibbles now and then but I know of a lady who purchases the wire hanging baskets and turns them upside down over the rhizomes to keep the koi out so you might want to try something like that.

Here's a pix of our mudpond but as I said we still have things that we want to do with it. It had american pond weed but we pulled and sprayed and I think we have it under control now. * I normally do not like to use chemicals but was forced to in this situation*
