Great responses from many many people.
today i released the first feeder fish. we call olomina here.
found a pic at fishbase.org.

also added fresh water shrimp.
the can live almost anywhere and are great food for my gars.

Il wait a few more week before i add the first 20 Gar.

I've thought of adding Dovii as well as they are local fish.
not shure yet though they might be competition for the gar if they grow large. Or its a good balance since there is enough space for many fish.

I have convicts ready as well and some other local fish.
will look up photos of all i add.

phot is of olomina from fishbase.org


These are often referred to as mosquito fish, or also gambusias, they work great to keep mosquitos out of ponds, they are live bearers and breed rapidly, and also serve as food to the fish in the pond, very good choice.
 
So excited for you ! What is the water level at now ? Any new pics ?
 
I'm totally ashamed of you all. Twelve pages and you guys fail to inform the OP that it's a rule on MFK to post update with pics every few hours for project of this magnitude. Now more pictures
















Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :0)
 
HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHA

by the way op GOT PICS

ahahahahhahahhahahahhahahhah just kidding
 
WOW
:WHOA::WHOA::WHOA:
 
I'm speechless ... Jesus Christ ! this is it ! =]

Suggestion / question - do you plan on putting any plants inside / around it ?

what about adding some Victoria amazonica aka The Giant Amazon Lily!!! You definitely got the right pond size for that monster, right weather and it would provide some shade area for the fish if they felt like chilling in a cooler spot :P


OMG I;m in love with this build =)
 
wow! amazing.... imagine 1million gallons? put some arowana there..... and more!!!!
