Default Any pond keepers on URG?

Hi All
Long time lurker on URG, just wondering if there's many of you with
garden ponds?
I have two, main pond is about 15'x15', stocked with lots of orfe,
goldfish and shubunkins. The other is a small one with no fish, just
for the wildlife, although the frogs & toads seem to have shunned it
this year.
There's also a raised fish pond down at my mums place that I built and
look after.

The 'net seems fairly dead these days for pond discussions. Rec.ponds
group spammed to death (now a rec.ponds.moderated version for those
that didn't know, although I haven't used it yet as its not carried by
Plusnet (yet)).

Anyway, I'm in looking to buy a couple of new pumps this year, anyone
got experience of Hozelock Titan (3000) or Fishmate (3000)?
Ditto Oase Aquamax kit, as I may replace my main pond pump this season
too.




Cheers


Hi Steve. Yep, I have a pond, smallish,.......... goldfish, comets,
shubunkin, and two koi. I have a Titan 2000, and have no probs.
There are a number of pond forums, if you like that presentation.......I
suggest a recent one.....http://www.forums.pondlife.eu/forum/index.php
Check Oase support before you buy.
