WOW Jess that is a lovely pond you got there....................Very nicely done...............

Jess

Thanks, It was the beginning of my fish keeping. I bought my house 7 years ago with the pond. It was never large enough and deep enough for the fish to survive our winters. So I brought them in and set up a 55 gal. tank. Try keeping large Karp in a 55 gal. tank. I was changing the water constantly and I didn't even have my python then. So when finally I enlarged the pond and depth, increased filtration, added a waterfall and lights. . . I had a very nice 55 gal tank empty and sad looking. Also I missed watching the guys inside. So after quite a bit of research I now have Discus/community tank. Keeps me very busy. But of course I now want 120 gal. tank. Have to save my pennies for that one. I enjoy both. And its not the end of my hobbies. . . I race sailboats too, its all about the water for me. : )
I see you've got an extensive list of tanks including a pond. Do you have any pictures?

Wow very nice looking pond....I once thought about making a outdoor goldie tank out of an old clawfoot bath tub...i was going to hook the filter pump up to the drain and have it coming back into the tub threw regular old taps...lol thought it would look cool in a flower bed ...never did follow threw ...think it woulda looked cool tho...lol
