Got pumps?fishman646;4767154; said:Here is a little update....I have been delayed several times now. All the pond wood is cut and just needs assembled. I had to rotate my 450g 90 degrees to make room in the current fish room for 2 8x4x2 ponds.I also had to move a 125 gallon out of the fish room and into my bedroom. This tank will be my Q tank for 3 leos, 3 pearls which will arrive next weekI am now waiting on boxes of material for filtration. All I can really do is finish building the pond which is a project! I am doing large BIO TOWERS on each setup. Any questions about pictures or the build ask! Also offer suggestions,input. Thanks

That's gonna be alotta electric my friendTheFishJunky;4769589; said:Got pumps?
Ah they are not bad about 250-300watts per pump. Nothing compared to the 4000 watts my reef tank runs off of
Here is a small update just to keep you guys on your toes. I received ALOT of supplies today with more on the way. I was amazed to see the size of my central airpump. The thing is huge! Also I received over 50 gallons of bio balls and 10 buckets of matrix. I put a fx5 on my 125 Q tank which will have leos in it in a few days!! I also decided to run this fx5 on my tenecor 8x3x2 which should be here in a couple weeks! Here are the updates # ponds framed and wrapped . Still need to insulate with type r foam. Also will be adding lexan cross bracing to the 11 foot pond!
Hey,
I've been watchng the thread here and there. The ponds are going to Sweet once completed. Loks like they'l be perfect height as well.
Have you ever thought about some other alternate heating method? Instead of running all of those heaters I mean? I'm not sure what's out there but you are going to have the neigherhood browning out with all of that juice runing from everyone's house STRAIGHT to your basement!?
P.S. Everything is looking great! can't wait to see the results and BTW......
DID YOU HIT THE LOTTO???? You're throwing some coin down like your last name is Vanderbelt!

This is money I have saved not going to college HAHA
I have 3 ponds drilled for bulkheads and foam installed I run a busy schedule so finding hours to work on this is hard.
Looking good so far.... I hate the fact that your thread is hyping me up to start some big project like this lol! ....
Liners are going in 3 of the ponds as we speak. Also bulkheads are drilled and will be put through liners tonight. Picture updates soon!
