    Let it run or shut it down?

    I leave my pond up and running 24-7 too. The only time I shut the falls down is when I do a waterchange. The water level goes below the skimmer so therefore I must shut it off.

    Jaguar Cichlid Fry

    Thanks for the quick response. Yes the parents are guarding the eggs. They did this the first time around too and something got them at night. Tonight I "will" leave the lights on for them. I really don't have a tank divider for the pleco :( However, I could move him to the 125g cichlid tank...

    Koi carp & tank set up from scratch

    Here's what a stock tank looks like. http://www.brusselsagri.com/farm_supplies/rubbermaid.htm I put deer netting over mine so the koi wouldn't jump out. This mind you was "temperary" housing (over wintering) with lots of filtration.
