Re: wildlife pond

I found two frogs in my garden last week (I'm right next to a stream) so I decided to build a pond to see if I can attract them in. I've seen one lurking in the bushes next to it which is great, do you think they're likely to move in? I purchased some floating plants which were labeled 'floating soldiers' though I've never heard of them before, they came with lots of tiny black snails on them which I've released in there too being a bit of a snail fan.

I've got these two beetles living in there already, I don't know what they are and my camera isn't sharp enough to pick them out. They move around at a steady speed but don't exactly zip around, they're oval shaped and dark. They're about fingernail size, does anyone know what they might be?
