Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I'm going to start on setting up a new pond in our backyard soon and was wondering if anyone had any advice. This will be a brand new setup and it will be a small, dugout, 6x6 pond or so. Any suggestrions on liner, pumps, depth, etc.....
What kind of fish would I be able to keep? Would Koi be too big? What about Shubukins? I heard they are not as big and expensive but almost as nice?
I am a total novice on ponds so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'll probably start posting some pics of the general area that the pond is going in and keep posting during construction. If anyone has any suggestions during any of the process, I would be happy to hear it.
By the way, I would like to hide the pumps entirely and not use a drop in pump that shows the hoses if possible. Is that possible? How do you seal the liner around the pump? Oh well, I'll just have to wait for some of you guys to respond back.
Thanks
George
