Supporter FishyMandy Posted December 3, 2014 Supporter Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) Tomorrow Night, this will be in my backyard ;D From the dimensions the seller gave me, it holds about 160 Gallons. Ever since my fry started hatching 2 and a half weeks ago I've been asking about a pond so I could keep more of them, and now it's happening It will take me a while to get it set up, I still need to buy/make a filter for it, clean it up, clean up the backyard to make it look nice, get it running, get some wire to cover it etc etc xD BUT It's official! I'm getting a pond! And I'll certainly keep you guys updated with the progress ;D Edited December 3, 2014 by FishyMandy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While my pond is now covered in its protective "greenhouse" for the winter I can delight in you starting a pond anew!

Regular Member shakaho Posted December 3, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted December 3, 2014 Great news! What material is the pond made of? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporter FishyMandy Posted December 3, 2014 Author Supporter Share Posted December 3, 2014 Thanks everyone. I'm so excited. I think I will try to build a filter myself. The pond is fibreglass 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shakaho Posted December 3, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted December 3, 2014 Good! Fiberglass ponds usually work well either on the ground or sunken. For a 160 gallon a ~15 gallon container will be great for a filter. Something like this or this will work well depending on the kind of medium you want to use and how many plants you want in the filter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
