    I have a small solar pumped water fountain in my pebble fountain. Temperatures have dropped (we had snow on Wednesday) and it's only just occurred to me ...


    ... should I put it away at this time of year? :dunno:

    I've had the main pond netted against leaf fall this time of year, but I haven't worked with a fountain before.

    TIA
