Neil Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Another thought try floating a small tank on the surface of the pond and try taking a few pics from inside the tank. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksta Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Darryl its possible I have missed this elsewhere but could you post a full list of inhabitants for me? Naturally you dont have to count the fry which you haven't caught yet But from what I can recall: Fronties Fossies Albino peacocks now and gibbi's. Is that it?

Guest big bad burundi Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I have mangaed to catch 2 clutches of frontosa now ,the first was stripped when i caught a female .The second was caught free swimming around rocks,a much harder job let me tell you. All the rostratus ive caught have been free swimming though im sure many more get eaten. Cheers Darryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreekStylez Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 i didn't even know u could keep cichlids in a pond due to maintenance and stuff. Are there any websites people can point me in in order to learn about keeping cichlids in ponds. What you need, maintenance etc Cheers. P.S Thanks for the idea big bad burundi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest big bad burundi Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Reewwwwwww albino peacocks horriable but nice pond why not some nicer species like ngara flamtails, cobue, etc not albino lol Oh well the contrast in colours already existing in pond is why i upted for the Albino's. I have flametails growing up but didnt want them in pond. To hard getting fry out the pond to warrant throwing the ngara in,they will stay in tank alone so i can harvest the fry very soon. The others you mention dont exite me what so ever sorry. Rei didn't even know u could keep cichlids in a pond due to maintenance and stuff. Are there any websites people can point me in in order to learn about keeping cichlids in ponds. What you need, maintenance etc Mate is just a big tank al i have is common sense nothing special. Oh and a whole lotta experience Sorry no website was much help building my pond quite frankly. Cheers Darryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
