Go Fish

This little pond holds 250 gal. and is home to 6 or 7 very large goldfish. It is a simple wooden box lined with a water bed mattress. Cut the mattress open and dispose of the inside fiber stuff. the rest of it is very thick plastic and holds up great. This pond has stood up for about 7 years. the bottom has rocks in it. the top waterfall has wine bottles in he bottom for filler and then pea stones. the top is supported with an old pvc table that someone put to the curb, and it provides the fish a nice place to hide when the birds come. By pumping the water to the top of the rocks and letting it flow through the rocks and back to the pond make a natural filter and the plants grab the nutrients that the fish provide. The best part is that the mosquito's go to the pond and the fish eat them when they land on the water. One year some frogs laid eggs and we had tadpoles. Oh yea, the fish were .10 each. called feeder fish.
The sound of the water running through the rocks is very relaxing on those hectic days.
