Green pond water and forever duck weed

If you move your pond (I would ) the sunny rockery would be a good place to plant your rosemary.

I have yellow iris but gets too big so taken it out. Might split and put in again. Never had a single pond skater in 7 years but perhaps the duck weed puts them off. The pond is pretty clear now though. I am finding that the frogs sometimes lay the spawn on the path or in the little half moon recess of the sewer grid. I scooped it out and laced it in the pond. No idea why they do this as it would just dry up.

Very bad parents, frogs!!!!

Again, there is spawn in the pond and frogs. Too much to disturb and where will I put all that water ?

You could dig a new pond - or put in an above ground pond - then bale out the water into trugs and pour into the new pond.

Would you want to keep the water if it is green, full of snails, duckweed & blanket weed? If the answer is yes then you would have to sieve it........the frogspawn & frogs are easily transferable.
