Almost embarrassed to post as it's so tiny in comparison to what other people have but this is my first indoor tropical fish pond. It's an injection moulded free standing Laguna pond holding 1300L / 343 Gallons. It's replaced a 120 Gallon glass tank.
I'm filtering it with a Hozelock Aquaforce 4000 solids pump and a Hozelock Bioforce 5500 pressurised filter with UV clarifier. I'm also currently running my matured FX5 alongside to cycle the Bioforce. The water is heated to 26C with 2x 300w Fluval E's, however these are only just about coping so I have 2x 500w heaters on the way.
Lighting is by the way of 2x 11w 6400K fluorescent lamps, one either end of the pond. It's not super bright but bright enough to see the fish with.
The black strip along the back is acrylic and is to protect the wall from water splashes as when my silver dollars feed they splash water everywhere. it's angled slightly so the water can run back into the pond. The net is to obviously stop fish jumping out and is secured tight all the way around the pond.
Current stocking consist of: Tiger Oscar, 4 Silver Dollars, Ornatipinnis Polypterus, Senegalus Polypterus and 2 Delhezi Polypterus's. I would like to add some more fish but not yet sure on what.
