These are 4ft x 3ft x 3ft deep plastic outside ponds (not filled to the brim to allow for rain water as they are all below the roof & overflows during heavy rains.

The home made filter I've got into the Molly pond... the green tube goes to the bottom of the blue drum, filters through some materials I've got inside the drum and the overflows back into the pond

Nice...

Ludwig?

Why dont you get some Choclate Gourami's Sent Via Post to you?

Surely SOME-ONE in SA Has some?


Also.

They look stunning.

And they are in Great Health.
 
Must cost lots to upkeep it. How often do you have to save a beat-up convict in the Con pond? Are they all same sex or pairs?
 
never seen convicts packed in like Malawis before! How do you stop them all killing each other? Thought cons were very territorial and particularly breeding pairs will attack and kill all their tankmates, especially other cons.
