As far as the returns, what you are seeing is just stubbed pipes through the wall of the pond. There are four of them and with 90's on them the water should circle quite well dumping all of the poopoo in the center four inch drain. And yes....there will be bubbles coming up too! Folks, I am beyond getting excited at this point. After the rockwork, waterfall and landscaping, I just might have to give up golfing and hang out at home for a change huh!

Golfing is an expensive hobby. Stay home with your fish and save money.

**momfrmhl** · 12-21-2005

Only 2 plants? One would probably be enough!!!

So how many fish do you really have in the pond now?

**UnkleTim** · 12-21-2005

ok fine, i was just kidding...
still waiting to finish the waterfall and rockwork before water and fishies!

**Dwight** · 12-21-2005

**UnkleTim** · 12-24-2005

ah....and now the settling chamber has arrived. ya thank it is big enough?

**danzcool** · 12-24-2005

What, only one?

**Cowiche Ponder** · 12-24-2005

Looks about twice as big as mine..so a 1000 gallons? That is one big tank sitting on that truck!

**Dwight** · 12-24-2005

Where did you get that thing ?

**"B"** · 12-25-2005

Wow, know that's a settlement chamber!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Bigfish2** · 12-26-2005

I wish it was in my back yard

**UnkleTim** · 12-26-2005

I got it from "Akitori", he got it from Reuben....who knows where he got it. Rueben used it as a qt, Akitori bought it from him, couldn't fit it in his back yard and luckily i am on land where i have plenty of room. i guess it is like the gift that keeps on giving huh?

And all of these years later, zero regrets. The learning curve the first few years was challenging, but today it’s all good. Jaws has become huge, danzcool.
