So this is a far off plan, 2-3 years, and I’m not buying anything until it’s all set up and ready (no buying a big fish with the “ill totally get a bigger tank one day”).
I’m planning a build for a pond in my back yard, not positive on exact dimensions, but it will be at least 3,500 gallons...
Hey everyone ^_^ this is my first post on here, and first attempt at re-stocking or raising the pond; so I apologize if I'm being ignorant in anything I say in my questions. Thanks in advance for the help!! (=
Ohkay so we have a ~2acre pond that's spring-fed, and deep (~25ft at it's deepest)...
does anyone know the size relationship between the number of inches wide a channel cats mouth is and it’s overall length? A rough estimate is fine; I’m just trying to monitor my local ponds catfish population.
Thank you
So my family are planning on moving to southern Spain (Costa del sol area) and I want to have a pond outside. The pond would be 2000 to 5000 gallons and contain fish such as red tail catfish,arowanas etc. In the summer months Costa del sol is perfect for keeping these kind of fish outdoors but...
I have two of these in my pond (given to me by a family friend who didn't know what they are either) and I really need to know what they are.
Thank you, Jesse.

I want to add an additional pump and aeration system to my pond this spring, and was just wondering the best method of doing this. I was thinking of running an extension chord out of a window, and though PVC pipe that has been buried underground,(to protect it from excessive moisture...

I recently made an upgrade for my p.bass and built him a 750g pond outside. When I moved him in he had completely normal coloring for a few days but now he has turned almost completely black with only a few spots towards his tail end remaining. The water quality is pristine (0 ammonia 0 nitrate...
Hey guys, Arapaima speculation question for anyone,
Do you think an outdoor fish predator such a Blue Heron could/would prey on a decent sized outdoor Arapaima?
I ask because Arapaima are supposedly 'armored' from predators and are known to eat birds but I am not sure how this would contend...
Hello everyone!
Today one of my ~10 inch koi recently died to an unknown cause. All the other koi are doing fine and eating with vigor. This koi was doing perfect yesterday and was eating well, but when i found it dead on one side of the body it was almost descaled, while the other side was...
I'm going to setting up a indoor pond in the basement. The water volume will be about 500 gal. I'm thinking the easiest way to filter would be building a trickle tower. I was thinking of doing it in a 20 gal trash bin or a similar type barrel. I wanted some input on what type of pump I should...
So I am trying to figure out if I want to have a diffuser on the bottom drain for the pond i am planning. It is not a very large pond. I would say maybe 6 foot wide and 12 foot long. Due to its shape I'm not sure if the diffuser would really be efficient at its job and really worth the extra...
