My first ghetto pond.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
This is a great idea, I'm gonna try to do this...oh wait, I HAVE done this...hahahahaha

Great work with the cabinet filter man, excellent decision also to use a liner!
 
thats very awesome
 
Well i had a slight problem this morning......

I was a bit hungover so i decided to sleep in a bit longer and just get dressed really quickly for work. So i stepped out of bed into a puddle of water... I panicked!
Looking around at all the tanks.. which ones leaking?? not that one.. that ones still full.. yep theyre all good.. Then i looked down at the pond....
The filter had tilted slightly, probably knocked it while i was pissed last night and there was a small trickle of water running out down onto the floor.

It probably leaked only 20 gallons or so but thats a f*** load of water when its on your bedroom floor lol. So i spent the next half an hour soaking it all up and still made it to work on time. lol
 
dude that sucks. my filter has done that a couple times to me.
any more updates?
 
Yeah wasnt very fun trying to clean up a massive puddle at 7 in the morning, good news is ive decided to buy a mop lol.

No updates just yet, still waiting for it to cycle.
Sally will be happy, the 180s getting a bit cramped now. I looked down at her while she was resting at the side of the tank and her tail was curled slightly so shes now officially longer than 2ft.
I cant wait to measure her, she was 51cm (20") when i moved her into this tank in january and only 5" across. So tiny lol.

Is sally a female or you just gave her a name?:D
And if she's female how you recognized it?:confused:
 
Lol cos Ive called every fish I've owned 'he'.
None of them actually have names (except for Mr. Dat Dat lol) so I decided to be different and say that she's a she, then my partner gave her the name (after the song "Mustang Sally")
