Hello... This is Melinda, from Virginia. My husband, Bob, and I just finished our indoor pond, which was originally for Guido, our red-tailed catfish, but looked a little empty. We added a 14 inch pacu and a 24 inch silver arrowana. You can see slideshows of the pond and the fish on youtube:
This is slideshow one, more about the construction:

And this is slideshow two, more about the set-up and inhabitants:

The pond is about 1000 gallons with the filter built-in. It was a hell of a project -- I never knew so many things could go wrong. I'm so glad it's done!
I'm excited to be on MFK... no offense to the other forum I'm part of, but sometimes one needs a break from talking about guppies and platies. So, hello to everyone!
