We Have A 2000 Gal In Ground Fish Pond With 3 Koi And 100 Gold Fish And Need A New Filter/pump System.?

by admin in Green Energy

The info on the Internet is overwhelming with everyone trying to sell their products, and of course they all say they have the best system. I cannot find any consumer ratings of the best system for the money. I think I need a system that sits outside of the pond and has a backwash feature so there is less work. My former system was too small for the amount of fish I have and it needed to be changed at least weekly. I would much rather have a good system so that I could enjoy the pond and fish more without having to struggle to pull the old in pond system out of the water and the time consuming maintenance. It seems a good out of pond system is pricey…….any recommendations would be appreciated. The cold weather is coming and I am getting concerned about my fish. The pond of course is green without a filter. Aquabead seems to be the best system from my research but I can’t afford it. Please do not suggest a homemade system as I am a woman and not that mechanical.

    I was gonna suggest a DIY project, then read your last line :) I can’t do anything like that either. They are real pricey, I only have a 90 gal pond, and those filters are expensive.
    Anyway, try these links, click on the forums, they have indoor/outdoor pond sections. They’ll most likely be able to help you out MUCH better than here. They’ll have lots more experience.http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/ind…http://www.aquariumboard.com/forums/home…

    for my ponds I use a regular swimming pool sand filter that I converted to pond use, I took the sand out and use foam rubber
    discs (3) for the pump I use a sump pump from Lowes or Home Depot
