I presume there is still some expertise here in spite of the garbage so
I would like to expand on the duckweed thing.

If it were not that several people here and elsewhere have said
goldfish eat duckweed, I would have written it off as nonsense.

There are TWO kinds of common duckweed. The smooth leafed one is readily
eaten by both goldfish and koi. The frilly leafed one is not.

I bought 16 feeders yesterday and have spent a good deal of time
studying their behavior and conclude that I have indeed been snookered.

On the rare occasion that one came to the surface, it simply looked
around and sounded again.

It is hard to believe that 1600 or even 16,000 would have the slightest
impact on the duckweed populaton.

Which duckweed do you have? Frilly edged or smooth?

Does anyone have any experience in this regard with a real (natural)
pond?

Thanks,

It is commonly known as Great Duckweed, Spirodela polyrhiza

According to your description, it should be readliy eaten by the gold
fish
but is totally ignored.
===============================
Both my GF and koi, fed twice a day, will eat every speck I toss to them
in
minutes. They will not touch the frilly stuff. I grow duckweed in tubs
outside the ponds or they'd eat it all. Even the indoor fancy GF eat it
in
minutes.

How can you know they're not eating it when your pond is so huge? They
come
up under it and take a mouthful at a time. They would have to be right
where you're standing to see this, so don't get discouraged. You wont see
much of a difference with only 16 average size GF in your large pond. If
you can afford them, get a few half grown koi. They'll make a difference
a
lot faster. :-)

I wouldn't be surprised if they're not bothering with the duckweed yet.
Despite common belief that goldfish are herbivores, the truth is they
prefer
protein from aquatic insects over grazing on algae and duckweed. Since you
just introduced fish to the pond, I wouldn't be surprised if it's stocked
with all kinds of far more preferable things to eat.

Snookered? My experience of feeders is (a) they're often not healthy and
may not eat anything, anyway, and (b) they're too small to do much about
duckweed. Give them some time.

On the rare occasion that one came to the surface, it simply looked
around and sounded again.

Give them a week. At that point you may have some fish that are eating
healthily - or you may not have any fish at all'

You shouldn't put goldfish into a natural pond. In many places, it is
illegal - for good reason.

Uh, sort of. As far as private waters are concerned, Roy may indeed be
correct. However, as far as public waters go in Alabama, the statement is
quite wrong.

"It shall be unlawful to intentionally stock or release any fish, mussel,
snail, crayfish or their embryos including bait fish into the public waters
of Alabama under the jurisdiction of the Division of Wildlife and
Freshwater Fisheries as provided in Rule 220-2-.42 except those waters from
which it came without the written permission of a designated employee of
the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources authorized by the
Director of the Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries to issue such
permit. The provisions of this rule shall not apply to the incidental
release of bait into the water during the normal process of fishing.
http://www.outdooralabama.com/Fishin...-stockings.cfm

Where it is a bit unclear (to me, at least) is the case where private
waters (ponds, springs, creeks and the like) flow into public waters or are
in the drainage basins of public waters.

Legal issues may not have been in the original post, however, they should
never be ignored.

It's "quite wrong" in public and private waters of _most_ states and

about. It may in fact be legal for him to introduce goldfish into private
waters - but then I said "in many places".

Like I said, you may be entirely correct regarding private waters. But it
is illegal in public waters "... without the written permission of a
designated employee of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources
authorized by the Director of the Division of Wildlife and Freshwater
Fisheries to issue such permit." I would imagine the examples you present
are also examples where a permit might be issued.

Alabama is sort of "my area." Granted, I don't live there, but I was up in
Huntsville last summer. The National Speleological Society held its
convention in Huntsville last year. They also held their convention in
Birmingham and Huntsville in 1967, and, while I did not attend that one, I
was in Huntsville that year too. Alabama is one of the TAG (Tennessee,
Alabama, Georgia) states that is home to some of the deepest caves in the
US. In 1967 Alabama was home to the deepest drop (Surprise Pit, 425') that
we knew of in the US. (It has since been replaced by Ellison's, in
Georgia.) I was born in Mississippi (you know, that state right next to
you that shoved your state out of first place to lead the nation in
illiteracy) and often crossed Alabama to visit friends and relatives.
Seems like for the past forty years I've been either traveling through or
to Alabama at a minimum of at least once a year, often quite a bit more.
Besides, most of the water in SE Alabama winds up flowing into Florida on
its way to the Gulf. I (and some others) tend to care a little about what
you all throw into your water.

and its wrong to spint on public pavements but its still done, yet
nothing is ever done about it either......I kjnow what I am talking
about that concerns Alabama and how things are done here. I could give
a rats ass about how they do it in canada, in Florida or up uynder the
freaking queen mums skirt.......It matters not to me......but your
worng about what can and can';t be done in Alabama
About like your stance with advice given to Carol
