I thought I was out this cycle but maybe not?? This would be my 3rd and for my second I got a very faint line 8dpo (assuming my tracking system as correct). This seems even fainter and again assuming correct tracking I think I’m 10dpo. I also looked way past the recommended window - maybe 30-40 mins. Hopefully not an evap line but I’ve taken so many tests and haven’t ever gotten one but I see a lot of complaints about FRER here.

One of the photos is high contrast for visibility.

Do I help?

I recently posted a few photos of my pond to get some advice on how to hide the liner at the bottom. I received some great suggestions and info but also got so many compliments and a request for more info and pics so am posting this follow up.

I have always wanted a pond after growing up in a fish loving family. My grandmother use to take me to buy a fish whenever I was sick as a kid. I had an area in my front yard that I cleared and had a smallish pond installed. I’m really happy about the location because I have a perfect front row view from my dining room to the full pond and waterfall. The installer said it is about 700 gallons but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s smaller. I chose coral rock to hide the sides of the liner and create the waterfall because I wanted it to look more “natural” (I’m in south Florida where coral rock is abundant). He used a liner. Since I’m new to ponds I have only added a few goldfish, shubunkin and small fish like mollies and swordtails. The coral rock filled in fairly quickly with moss and ferns so I’m really happy I went with this as the installer said he rarely has people choose coral rock. I also have gotten a lot of frogs, insects and snails that visit the pond.

Happy to answer any questions.

I had my pond installed a little over a year ago. The guy that installed it said that after some time the pond liner would be hidden but that never happened. I love how plants and moss have filled things in but these folds from the liner at the bottom of the pond bother me. I was told adding rocks would complicate cleaning. I have a person that comes once a month to clean the pond.

Any suggestions on how to hide these folds? I have coral rock around the pond.
