You can see my pond using my Weather Webcam on the weather station site. http://www.hobbytalk.com/weather/webcam.html and use the Live Webcam link to move the camera to the bottom right.

Here are a few pics from early summer

Have had the fish for 5 years now. Started out as 10 cent feeder goldfish. A couple are over 8" long now.

kind of neat that the fish would grow that large . we are just going to put a few rocks around ours and let mother nature grow the grass and whatever she wants around it .toss a few fish in and a small pump .

Very nice hank. Hope to have some better pics of mine soon. I have some pearlscale goldfish that are baseball sized. A couple of 16" koi that I would like to get rid of. If anyone's in northern Ohio talk to me. I'll trade em for a couplle of pearlscales (any size) or whatever. A six pack'd prolly get them.

I just posted a couple of new pics of mine in the gallery. Sadly none had enough light to see the waterfall. The wall of rocks in the back is a working waterfall. Will try to get som when lighting is better.

I'm into fish keeping! Maybe starting a koi pond in my backyard someday

Wow, this is a crossover hobby I never would have imagined several of us would share!! I've had this Koi pond for around 7 years now. I started with a few Koi in the 4" to 6" range. I've bought a few more over the years and have had many that were born in the pond. The biggest ones are now as long as my arm! I'm not even sure how many I have, 15 or so. I love this pond, but it sure requires a lot of filter maintenance.

Very nice looking pond! Heres a tip. If there are lots of musquitos in your pond pick up some musquito fish or white cloud mountain minnows

alas no pond here, just 2 saltwater aquariums 1 55 gallon reef and 1 105 gallon marine (fish only) tank that has been set up for 1 day and is going through the cycle period to build the bacterial filter.
