I have been overflowing it to the delight of both my fish and plants. The tank in the greenhouse is uber ugly, but it too was also only half full. I am pretty impressed with how well a flame sword can go from 70 degree water to 90+ and respond with new growth...

nice pond dude

Rolo Ojeda - 11 years ago

Have you ever just covered your pond with a cheap plastic to protect the plants in the winter? I'm here in Cali, & put my canopy over the pond then cheap plastic over it. So far so good. It's warm inside & 24-32 deg. (F) at night. Let me know. Thanks bro.

joesaysso - 12 years ago

That pond is so pimp, dude. Does it run all winter with the plants surviving? Or do the plants have to be moved in doors?

Sunfisherman - 12 years ago

Algae from plants dying/decomposing? Great videos. Subscribed. I'm considering starting a fishkeeping channel with some friends as well.

Tim Van Auken - 12 years ago

I love the idea as long as there was some kind of climate control! I'm sure you can get some amazing growth out of plants with natual light!

I lost three nice goldfish in my pond during the Heat wave here in WV. One fish is still suffering... he is isolating himself, kinda floating on the surface and looks sick. Not sure what is wrong with him. =[ So death toll could reach 4.

Wayne's Fish World - 12 years ago

I got some of that stuff too when the temperature went up, and i'm a state to the right of you so maybe it was the temperature ....it was hot

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 12 years ago

BINGO ;) thanks

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 12 years ago

thanks man, apparently ponds are a "whole other world" for me.

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 12 years ago

haha, let the haters hate ;)

i4yue - 12 years ago

i personally wouldnt put the tanks in a green house because the temps in most greenhouses are several degrees hotter than ambient temps...even going well past 110 in summer months. in the winter they'll go as low as the ambient freezing temps unless heaters are installed. unless dustin does something to help cool down that green house when it's completely closed up those fish are gonna fry.

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 12 years ago

I dont intend on cooling the tanks, I am only going to do a few certain, hardy species in there (swords, jungle val, sag ect) heck by the time i get the thing done, summer will be over, I will worry about cooling the place next spring...

Tim Van Auken - 12 years ago

There is no way you can keep tanks outside in the summer with the heat. Please let me know what you are going to do to cool the tanks. I've said something several times with no answer. If anyone else knows please let me know and I'll use that to build my own greenhouse for my tanks.

thanks, appreciate the support...

Dustin's Fish Tanks - 12 years ago

....Jam on ;) thanks, dude trolls my videos then acts all buddy buddy...

jam1e8 - 12 years ago

WTF is your problem? You hate on Dustin in some videos then suck up to him in others. I'm subscribed to your channel but I won't be for much longer. And don't try to tell me you don't hate on Dustin because this is a comment from another video: I don't think you know what the hell your talking about. Your making a video about something you don't use thus you not knowing anything about it. Once again just another filler video. Keep buildin up that video count with pointless, unhelpful crap.

Staxxual - 12 years ago

hes obviously doing alot of things right. he has almost 3 million views? you dont have 300k? im subscribed to your channel and enjoy your videos.. but chill. its all a learning experience

Damn blanket weed, drives me nuts. It was probable low oxygen and lots of sunlight

Jimmy Sheehy - 12 years ago

With the waterfall running on low water it would make more bubbles, oxygenating the tank, which could help algae grow.

thumbs up

nice!

I had my own business called Living Splendor for many years in San Francisco. I took care of aquariums, indoor plants and small gardens and yea grooming the plants was a big part of what I did in each of those areas, removing dead or yellow leaves, spent flowers, ect. If you have any buddies with marine tanks, I bet a lot of their fish, like tangs, would love that algae.

Joel Bierman - 12 years ago

Algae was probably the result of plants not doing so well in the heat. Either the plants or the algae in a system will do well and it's almost never both.

nuimaleko7 - 12 years ago

I have 5 large goldfish in a 55 gal trash can on the patio. It is deep enough to stay cool and prevents raccoons from getting to them. I have a couple of power heads in there for water movement, but I mainly clean it by just stirring up the bottom and over flowing it, to carry any muck away. I take out any floating plants to keep them from getting swept away, but other than that I just put the hose in the bottom of the trash can and let it overflow every couple of days during the summer.

MbrothersPokemon - 12 years ago

is your big goldfish still alive.
