Bathtub for a pond? - Aquarium Advice

BrutusPleco · 08-01-2005, 10:54 PM

We have an acrylic bathtub (100 Gal.) which has a hard gel coat that we thought we would use as a small pond. Our 90 gallon plastic pond sprung a leak. right now we have a plastic liner in it. Have 2 large comet goldfish which have been in the pond for 2 years. They are huge!!! Thanks for any help!!

Should work, though I am not sure what kind of mildew resistant coatings they put on bathtubs. That would be my only concern.
