Water rescue for Lottbek pond: habitats for fish and frogs!

Lottbeker Teich, Stormarn, Deutschland - In the Lottbek pond in the Stormarn district, dredging is now very vigorously! The vital water ratios should be improved, because the carp and frogs urgently need help to survive the summer heat. The mud that has accumulated there ensures a catastrophic lack of oxygen - and caused mass and frogs in the last two summers. If this is not possible, the pond threatens to transform into a bloody fish pit!

pond under pressure - 16 weeks of construction time!

Because of a leak in the course of the pond818 last summer, too much water suddenly ran - a disaster! This led to a drastic tightening of the lack of oxygen. But now there is hope! In a large -scale campaign, 8,000 cubic meters of mud and sediment are to be removed from the pond. A total of 1.9 million euros will be taken in hand for this life -saving measure. The construction work is scheduled for around 16 weeks and the team has a clear order: bring the Lottbek pond back to life!

From next year, lively frogs could use the pond again to reproduce, and the fish may hope that they will not suffocate further under the water surface. A real outcry for nature!
