I have one.
It’s in dire need of a clean Blush
Lots of green algae and mulm..

Though the newts don’t seem to mind and indeed, reading about them they apparently seem prefer mulmy water.

My pond has native hornwort in the deep part of the water and purple loosestrife, water forget me not, willowherb of some sort (it self seeded itself) and I want to squeeze in some red cardinal flower as well in the shallow water part then outside the pond in the soil I have scented pinks and tall campanulas

Yes! But it is a series of plastic boxes that we had lying around, until we can get the garden landscaped and enough ground space to dig a pond properly.
We had loads of frogs last year, and there's at least one there now.
Seen these eggs? On the surface and wondered if anyone knows what they are ?
