I laughed so hard when you coughed and said fine. I do hope you're fine tho :P. By the way - Plants actually absorb ammonia (NH3) directly from the water column and prefer it over trites/trates. So if you have enough plant matter to offset that ammonia there won't be a need to cycle the pond in the first place.

I told you you can't put vinyl pools on grass. When weeds grow they grow through the vinyl. Yet you still don't get it. The instructions say specifically not to do this. Also Rubbermaid containers kill fish. Greg Sage put out a great warning about this years ago.
