Leichardti and pond PIX!

[Steve_89]

Here are some recent shots of my leichardti in his pond.

He just survived his second winter and is going strong.

I am thinking about throwing my two AUL in the pond over spring and summer to see if I can get them up to real monster size

The blue tank pictured is supposed to be his new home...but it leaks >_<

I need to find some time to fix it.

The lowest the temp gets is around -2 degrees celcius. 28.4 degrees Fahrenheit? I don't think its that cold compared to your winters?

There is no way he can jump out. The custom net cover ensures that

No Way! That is below freezing, he must have been a fish popsicle!!!

Sorry guys...there is a bit of confusion.

The water temp does not reach -2 degrees. That is just the air temperature.

I never actually measured the water temp so I am unsure as to what it was. I do not heat the water though.

How many gallons is it?
