It does take a whole lot of time but that\u2019s mostly because you\u2019ll be spending hours upon hours marveling at your creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of joy you\u2019ll get in return is tremendous. If you\u2019re not careful, you\u2019ll also get backache &#8211; but if you do, you\u2019ll know it was totally worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ponds are like fingerprints &#8211; each one is unique. Mine is a young retention pond on a sunny terrace. And it is prone to drama, as it befits a fledgling body of water. At the filming of this video, I was dealing with a charming but unruly guest who\u2019s overstayed its welcome, for more than one reason. I can still hear the delicious crunch it makes when you rip it from the pond bottom. Good times! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ribniki so kot prstni odtisi \u2013 vsak je druga\u010den!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Skupno jim je to, da v njih najdejo zato\u010di\u0161\u010de premnoga drobna \u017eivljenjca, ki se najraje kar sama povabijo. Pa tudi kak\u0161no malce ve\u010dje se najde med njimi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In potem tam \u017eivijo, se lovijo in mno\u017eijo, za obilo presene\u010denj poskrbijo in skrbnega opazovalca marsi\u010desa nau\u010dijo. Lastniki v ribnikih najdemo sre\u010do, pa tudi precej dela.
