New Tropical Pond

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have about 10 little ones. I don't even know the species. I'll put some african cichlids in there when things balance out. I think it will be fun to see those colorful fish in there for my kids.
 
Sorry about the photos being a little dark. I start work at 6 am. The water is still very clear. I see that a little algae is starting to form on the bottom of the rocks. Nothing too serious though.

Here's my vacuum tube. A coupld times a day I'm running the pump with the other finer filter to give the cleaning a little boost. Seems to be working great. The only problem with this system is that I have to get in the water when I want to hook up the hose to vacuum.

A couple of goldfish/Koi will eat any worms.

It came along great from beginig to the end.
I enjoyed this thread.
 
I just did a cleaning of my barrel filter. I put another layer of finer rocks to clean the water a little bettter and catch the finer stuff. I thought these rocks were pretty clean. Guess not!
