Pond?

[Joshuakahan]

I ran an Intex 10 by 5 pool in my basement for 2 years without issue. Switched to Rubbermaid 300 gallon tubs for peace of mind. Always scared me having that much water in the Intex for that long.

I think the Rubbermaid is what I’ve decided on as well. I want to be able to go on vacation and not be paranoid I’m coming home to a disaster lol

Tuff stuff makes a good tib for fish also. Naot as thick but I've had good luck with them. Tractor Supply has 110 gallons for around $75.

I saw the TS 110 but I’m looking for something a little bigger, the 180 was good but it’s only available with shipping and shipping is a good chunk of change

Same issue here. 110 work well for grow outs outside and in the basement. Setting up outside today. Another week or 2 before I'll feel safe for central american cichlids.

Nice! What are using for a filter?

For the 110's Beckett pond filters. For the 300 a pond filter from china I got for $10 with the pump. And a home made trash can filter with a 4500 gph pump from Harbor Freight.

Got my 2 from home depot on sale for $100. They have worked for over 2 years I have bought some spare sponge filters for it.

Walmart has it for $118. Best price I can find.

500 gph, up to 750 gallons. Not sure It would be enough for 750 gallons. But it has handeled a heavy stocked 300 gallon with no issues.

I’ve been thinking about this type, I found this one on HDs site. Is this type any good? I’m a pond rookie lol
