240 gallon tubs recirculating

Oishi 2006

It's turning into a cold November. This trio of japanese born Oishi 2006 fish is spending the fall in a 240 gallon fiberglass pond. They have a large bowl filter and tons of hornwort in the tank. The bottom is sandy and their diet is largely earthworms and Daphnia.

I love playing with goldfish in the rain. Removed the fading duckweed and did a large water change.

The smaller female had a large ulcer/fungal infection on the side but baytril injections and potassium permanganate did the trick.

Fiberglass tub rehab

Got a tube of white pigment to get the blue mix right. Just about the right color. This is the second tub and it just needs the inside bottom patched and its ready for the matsuyama or blue egg Phoenix. They'll be green water and duckweed till fall.

Patching a couple bulkhead holes. Got my blue a little to dark but can lighten it up with top coats.
