Lots of people across the country talk about their crazy weather, but how many places does it snow one week and hit 80 degrees the following week? Welcome to springtime in the Rockies! Hopefully your water features are doing well as they finally break free from their winter's hibernation!

This month's newsletter includes some tips on finding and fixing pond leaks, a seminar update, another nice comment from one of our customers, a product update and this month's Aquascape video. 

Happy Pondering,

The True Pump Team

A User-Friendly Guide to Fixing Pond Leaks
Spring is in full swing and you probably noticed your fish are swimming around the pond more while the water lilies are sprouting leaves.

You might start to notice a slight drop in water level and wonder if you're losing some water due to evaporation or whether you have a leak in your pond after experiencing a harsh winter. Understanding the basic principles of identifying and fixing leaks will help you repair the problem quickly and efficiently.

Colorado Water Garden Society Pond Tour
The Colorado Water Garden Society asked us to share the following information about their 2019 pond tour:

This year's annual pond tour will take place on Saturday, July 20 in Centennial and
Southeast Englewood. If you have a pond or water feature and would like to be included in this year's pond tour, please contact Rebecca Nash at 303-921-8144 or nashrebecca@q.com. Being on the tour involves having someone at your site from 10:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. on July 20 and having a Pond Tour sign posted in your front yard that day. You will receive a year's free membership to CWGS. There is also an optional picnic at Hudson Gardens from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. afterwards. For more information go to Colorado Water Garden Society.


Product Update
We currently have a nice variety of water lillies and marginal plants. We are waiting until it warms up a bit to order water hyacinths and water lettuce, we should have those around Memorial Day.

After moving our fish tanks to their new location it's taken us longer than expected to get the tanks balanced. We are hopeful to have a good selection of fish available for you to purchase just before Memorial Day also. Thanks for your patience!
