    Just some quick point and shoots when I think of it Very Happy
    I have room for one more coffee can plant pot, so send me a Maxwell house sized root ball if you dont mind sunny
    I am keeping my eye out for another free or super cheap pond shell, hopefully a bigger one. This is fun! I want more!

    Well for fathers day (yes I worked) My BF took me to work and I had him pick out a koi for his pond, so far the cost on the whole build is $11.95
    He is about 3-4"

    Only problem I would have with trying to keep fish outside are the darn neighbors cats. May end up setting up a few tanks under my main when the time comes that way hubby can't complain lol

    That would work! 2 plastic tubs run by sponge filters work fine for angel growouts
