Lol, right now, it's just a temporary pool. My dad wanted me to have a temp thing set up first before I decide to make something more permanent. I'll have the permanent pond made before the summer is over though.;) Lol, here is the temp setup, nothing special:

Nice man, I don't want any cats in my set ups, lol. They just eat more than I'm going to want to feed them. :nilly: There's a major difference between keeping cichlids well fed, and keeping cats well fed, lol.

What part of the bay are you in btw? Everything is so packed tight up there, how can you manage to fit setups large enough for fish like tsn in your house?:nilly: I would understand if you lived somewhere like Berkeley, some of the peeps there kind of have room to turn around in, lol.

oh i had them in a 120 gallon but now i had to keep them in a 90 so it would be easier to catch them than moving around all over a 5 foot tank...lol they'll be kept their till the guy picks them up for his 14' round diameter...im from Daly City...and i have plenty of room but i wanted to make things smaller but my tank is still going to be more than 600 gallons...;)
 
You know if it doesn't work out you could always split your pond up 4-ways with sheets of plastic or tarp. I had to resort to this when I was growing my dovii's in a pond, they couldn't each other.
