New Pond/Outdoor Tank

[crmarti]

i had this posted in the DIY thread but i figured since its pretty much finished i would post it in here to see what you all think. It has 4 comet goldfish and a school of mosquito fish lol to help cycle the tank with a homeade trashcan filter and some plants that i got for free. it is 300 gallons

That's quite an amazing job you did there, considering how it started life

Can't beat the price...

Where did you get the tank?

 

[crmarti]

i got it from my grandpa who had it just sitting in a shed. he said he couldnt think of a use he had for it so he gave it to me....here is a little update, you can see how well all of the plants are growing

[crmarti]
