Maybe they are food for the fish too! Well its neat that they are hatching, and I'm sure it wouldn't be so great if they all lived anyway. there were alot of eggs there.

Kreeger1, how many baby Cardinals did you find? Are they still alive? I bought 3 babies but they only lived a few days, I couldn't get them to eat.

Those eggs were nudi eggs,
I had baby cardinals a few years back. One day I just found them living in my sump/fug. I never fed them anything special and they did fine tell a power outage kill most of my stuff.

I knew those eggs were the Nudibranch eggs. I was looking through your pics. and saw the baby, I was curious, I think they have a better chance of survival if they are tank raised anyway. I also love the pond. I have 2 of them, love them alot!

Kreeger1, I agree your pond is pretty cool looking... Do you have any more info on it... I am looking to set one up for a future project once I get a few others things out of the way

April540 · #**882** 03/05/2006, 12:27 PM

asnatlas, you will love it!!!!!! They are soooo relaxing to listen to when your outside, especially at night, My friend across the street will come over with her husband at night and we will sit out talking, you will see her sliding further and further in her chair, LOL, she said it relaxes her and she gets sleepy!

Before i got my house I told myself I was going to have my big tank and a pond that I have always wanted

Well I am working on the 600gal and hopefully will have that up and running in the next few wks... Once I get that and a few other things out of the way I am going to look into setting up 2 ponds, a small one in the front and a decent sized one in the back... I love the sound of water...

Love my pond too

Kreeger1 · #**885** 03/05/2006, 12:48 PM

The liner I think was 25 x 25. I've got a savio skimmer box and the big 5000 gph savio pump that is a electric hog something like 800 watts 24/7
IA local reefer Chuck put the pond in for me, he gave a little how to type deal to other local landscapers so the laor was free for me. I collected all the rocks in fields that have been cleared for new construction so that save some major money too.
Can wait to get the pond going again this year.

Gosh Shawn, Why such a small tank? LOLOLOLOL Thats about 1/2 the size of my 1 pond! Thats great, you will have to keep us posted on that tank.

April540 · #**887** 03/05/2006, 01:14 PM

Here is a pic of on of the aquired inhabitants, they always find there way into the ponds. The grand kids love them.

Kreeger1 · #**888** 03/05/2006, 01:49 PM

nice shot

April540 · #**889** 03/05/2006, 03:46 PM

Thanks, I thought he was cute!

How do you keep your ponds crystal clear? What is the best way to filter them? I see so many different opinions, I don't know what to believe. I have about a 600 gallon pond by my front door right now.

Kreeger1 · #**891** 03/05/2006, 07:20 PM

Just the big savio skimmer box is all I have as a filter, When the pond got really hot it did get some green tint to it but I used some liquid stuff to remove it.
My pond has been plug and play so far
