Thanks to all who helped me earlier. I've experimented with different containers and stands that I have around the house and this combination pictured below is what I'll stick with for now. The big fish will only scoot in and out briefly but there |

Here are a couple of pictures I'd promised a while ago: This is the Morning Glory Tower. They have grown over 20 feet and would grow higher if the pole were higher. We've had fun watching them: Return to the Ponds & Aquatic Plants Foru |

My new pond (2300G)is up and running with may be 3 to 4 Sarassa (a few inches long). When the pond was a few weeks old the water was crystal clear and then all of a sudden it turned green. PH level is 7.5 and I have a home made bio-filter. |

My pond is about 5' x 10', sort of kidney-shaped, with an average depth of 3'. By the time I wrestled with what to do for a stream (almost 2 years now!), I ended up with one 20' long. The pond seems small now, by comparison, so I've toyed with usi |
