you are sooo lucky! I want a koi pond... And you live in Arizona! I live in Alaska.... haha but right now I have a 46 gallon reef and setting up a 55 gallon comunity freshwater

Extremely low tech, 5 gallon freshwater tank.

AzFishKid- you are so lucky, my parents would never let me dig my own ponds. i want to soooo badly though, i actually tried to dig one by myself in the woods before, using garbage bags as the liner, but even with almost three rolls of duct tape re-enforcing the seems, it leaked out and killed my common carp i put in it.

just a 20L for a baby jd cichlid right now. Deciding on what on want to do next.

55g coldwater community (after I upgrade my lighting, it'll double as a hydroponic veggie system, eventually going for a 75g, no pics yet), 10g QT, and a 1g snail bowl.

And I'll further establish that we're drooling over each other's collectoritis, namely Phillip's

Haha thanks guys.
@Budget Aquarist: Sounds like fun, even though you ended up killing your fish, LOL. I wish i could have done some DIY stuff with my ponds, but my parents just wanted to hire someone to build the ponds for us. That's no fun!

I'm also in the process of adding a 60-P high light tank and several emersed containers for growing plants (30-50 new species that i don't already have ). Will start a journal in a few weeks for both of them...

Hey everyone,

My 75G money pit tank.. (link later)
20G - soon to come down in place of a DIY 15G cube
30G -fish only
30G -QT tank, in the making

Future DIY rimless cube tank.. tank is only going to cost 20$ to build...
Tank will be almost DIY everything except for filter.


Philip does make me jealous. But I'm working on his collectoritis rating...I'm up to 23 types of plant in my 75! Picking 15-17 is giong to be hard...Soon to come 8 Platinum angels!

75 gallon with rainbowfish (planted- low tech)
38 gallon sulawesi (planted- low tech)
29 gallon hillstream (planted- low tech)
29 gallon axolotls (not planted)
5.5 gallon axolotls (planted- low tech)
10 gallon CRS (planted- high tech)
15 gallon rimless plant growout (planted- high tech
7.5 gallon rimless sulawesi biotope (planted- low tech ish)

I kind of got my parents hooked on ponds when I turned my little boat shaped plastic sandbox into a pond when I was young, stocked with feeder goldfish but it was a pretty cool little thing lol.

I only have 2:
One 25 gallon-Med tech, Med. Light Fishes are tetras, platies, moore, shinbunkin and ghost shrimps.
One 10 gallon-low tech java moss with java fern and anubias. Fishes are one betta, 5 aple snails and one ghost shrimp
