Default new pool pond..


lurker wrote in message ...
im making a very cheap 451 gallon pond out a kid pool dug
underground..im new to this so was just wondering what kind of
filtration will be needed. right now i plan on it holding 2 plecos and
a bunch of apple snails.

thanks for any advice

===================
Probably very little filtration for only 2 fish and some snails. Look into
small pond filters. The Tetra line is easily found just about everywhere
pond supplies are sold, including mail order. Plecos are tropical so you
will have to bring them in in the fall depending on where you live.
