    a summer pic of the phila. burbs pond

    Just 4, it's a very small puddle. Just 3ft. deep by 81/2 ft. long by 41/2 ft. wide. It's been up for 4yrs now, what a pleasure it's been, much less up-keep than my tanks. It's like i can take the summer off.....Rich

I've always found the best bargains are found at our local aquarium club meetings auction that usually comes at the end of the meeting. Someone (me included) is always bringing in locally bred fish, used...
