Guest mickey85 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Alright, how do you filter one of those rubbermaid tub ponds? I'm going to be using a tub that we have around the house for storage, so it can't have holes cut into it, and I'm a broke college student, so it won't be pretty. I'm thinking a maximum of $25 for this project, if possible. the reason for this idea is that I will be taking my fish home for thanksgiving and christmas breaks (well, maybe not thanksgiving...they can manage a week with an automatic feeder), and I don't want to cart home a 30 gallon tank. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jimmy_396_jimmy Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 just buy a filter for fish tanks, it is a 30 gallon right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mickey85 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 no, what I'm talking about is I need a filter for the RUBBERMAID tub...NOT for the aquarium. can I just use the 320 gph power filter from my fish tank for the tub? I know it'll be a bit underpowered, but if I do regular water changes, it should be okay for a month, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jimmy_396_jimmy Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 it will be alright how big is the tub anyways, just treat the tub like a regular tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mickey85 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I would guess 40-50 gallons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
