  • hmmm i thought 625 gallon was the biggest polly tank you could get? well i guess im gettin the 1000 gal for my gator :)

  • @krispcream1 Your gator will love it :) They have it available at the farmandfleet website & agrisupply website. Just search for "Poly Stock Tank".

  • @huntawunta yeah i can get it shipped to me for 427$! because there store is very close to where i live so im very happy!

  • @krispcream1 $427 includes shipping? Not bad a deal. I got this from agrisupply and shipping was $170.

  • That's a realy nice pond, but i think you need to sort out the green.

  • @DarkIngrid100 Yeah, thanx for the advise. But cultivating the "green" on this outdoor pond is done on purpose. Algae helps bring nitrates down, is a natural food source as it is high in protein (60% more than shrimp w/c is essential to the head development of Ranchus, Lionhead and Oranda varieties), & it provides rich oxygenated water that allows them to grow rapidly & healthily. Lastly, Goldfish develop better in the soothing green environment because they are less stressed.
