Nice! What's the full stock list in there I can tell you lik tsn lol

Haha i know right i like my multiples with anything i keep...I just love the fact they all get along, I've had plenty of large RTC's,Achara,rtcxtsn aswell but they are alot more agressive towards their own kind and others, . theres 7 TSN 20-30", one MarblexTsn hybrid 28-30", one tiger oscar, and one Florida softshell turtle 12-15". This Pack of 8 i've ended up with is extremly intolerable of new comers and ate 5 16-18" TSN over the past few months, so there was 13 total super unlucky hah something had to give

Pump cost me $150 for 2500 GPH and everything else i already had accumliated over the years but ill put a list of it all.

3 rubbermaid containers $40
3 uniseals and PVC pipe $25
bio balls, pot scrubbies, mech pads $80
2 Three Drawer towers $30...can find these everywhere for 15.00 and under
Egg crate $20
1/2" rubber hose and fittings $30

everything is estimated but its a good example that you can get by with what you can find around the house and a bit of cash over time. Great temporary setups for cheap, wouldnt trust mine without the liner but i know alot of people run them that way.

Hope you got a dehumidifier in that garage. But pretty cool in all. Way to think outside the box.

The pool may only cost $100, but you'll spend over that every month just to heat it, even if it is covered and insulated in a garage. If it is outside multiply that amount by a few times. It will need to be lined with egg crate or other material to keep it form getting punctured if you plan on keeping big cats. Adequate filtration could be a few hundred or a few thousand dollars, depending on your DIY skills.

I wouldn't waste the money....

Extremly untrue that filtration would b $1,000...i have a couple rubbermaids and a drawer tower filled with some bio/mech with one 2500 gph pump. I use the pump that came with the pool just for circulation, i took out the micron filter cartridge it came with and it is pretty powerful. I have the 1700 gal. 12' diamater. No heaters what so ever and no cover. Water is always around 70 degrees and it is located in my basement. Great buy in my opinion. Most expensive part of mine was an extra 45 mil epdm liner. Cost more than the whole pool lol...

I said it could be a few hundred or a few thousand. You obviously have great DIY skills and managed to do it for about $400, but most people would spend more. Also, 2x turnover is considerably less than some people would feel comfortable with.

pool is located in my basement and there is a dehumidifier that runs constantly into a sump pump basin. Honestly i turn it off from time to time and use the humidity to heat the upstairs of my house during the spring and fall. There is also a vapor barrier of 20 mil plastic over 80% of the basement ceiling to retain the moisture. I anticipated problems but ive been good so far.
