Common Causes of Stomach Pain, # 7: You're chewing gum to keep from snacking. Believe it or not, chomping on gum is a big cause of stomach pains. You often swallow lots of air, which can create gas and bloating, explains Christine Frissora, M.D., a gastroenterologist at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City.
Garden Pond. A small garden pond with a waterfall should be deep enough that the bog and aquatic plants' soil are under 3 to 6 inches of water. Generally, garden ponds are 18 to 24 inches deep. With the addition of a filter, the waterfall will clean and aerate the pond water, allowing small aquatic creatures, such as turtles, frogs and fish, to thrive amid your water garden plants.
Pond depth is an important factor, a stocked fish pond should be at least 8 feet deep over at least 25% of the surface area. Installing and running an aerator in the winter helps to keep an opening on the surface of the water. Simply cutting a hole in the ice will also work, especially in a smaller pond.f you intend to stock fish, then at least 25% of the surface area should be over 8 feet deep. This allows the fish to over winter without running out of oxygen. The minimum size for fishing, swimming or supplying water is 1/4 acre.
