Thank you Wayne for the reply.

The goal is to have produce from the pond: fish, vegetables etc. This concrete pond was originally built for commercial fish farming but now no fish and no plants around it .. there is water but seems lifeless.

Do you think we need to add soil to the bank of the pond? Maybe grow something first? However as there is no fish I guess the water doesn’t have any nutrients so plants won’t grow well too.

Interesting to learn mosquitoes larvae as free food for the fish. And it makes sense to add rocks for fish breeding.

Hi there, we have a large concrete fish pond and would like to convert it into a permaculture ecosystem. However i find it difficult because no soil available therefore can’t really grow plants. As a newbie I find myself stuck here. Could anyone help and provide some ideas..? Thank you all in advance..
