fairly cheap. and am waiting for a reply from the manufacturors as regard any problems with keeping fish in it (fungicides etc)
its a 12' x 30" = 1,485 gal (5,619 L) (from manufacturers website) so plenty of room. i'd see what the solar cover is like and whether it allows light to get through (1 site said it let 80% of light through but "greatly reduced heat loss"
i was wondering about how i'd stock it though. obviouslt i'd be fitting a large pond filter (cosidering setting up a koi tye system with vortex filter then several media bays, though it'd all be DIY cause the bought units are rediculas) and a large heater(though hopefully it wont be needed, for instance when i was testing my 400l for water tightness i filled it up straight from the tap, next day after being in the sun the temp was about 23-25c
my plan is to get the "pond" to pay for itself by getting some haps in there that'd breed and i sell what i can net out an grow.
so my stock listing would be 4Fossorochromis rostratus(1m3f) 6-8 Cyrtocara Moorii (2m4-6f) 10 Copadichromis borleyi and a group of yellow labs. possibly some acei(ngara) aswell.
would that work. are their likly to be hybrids there???
also if you think i could up the stocking levels, though i'd like to minimise the number of fish i have to add. (cost and what not)
