Dear Aquarium Friends,
About two years ago I took over a wastewater-runoff pond in my large apartment complex in Northern Raleigh and started to turn it into a "wildlife refuge". My ultimate goal was not just to beautify the environment, but to provide a natural sanctuary and a valuable teaching tool for urban kids and school systems. It is now flourishing - filled with animals and attracting lots of people (and kids) who are learning about the environment despite their city living situation.
I would now like to use this is a pilot project to renovate other runoff ponds (they often look like bomb craters). I'm wondering if you might know of a source of goldfish, catfish, fathead minnows that I could use to stock some of these ponds. I'm doing this mostly out of my own pocket so I don't have many resources to buy fish...
Thank you so much!
Sincerely yours,
Karin Muller
