Hi .. I am new to this site but have a question and don't know where to post this. I currently have one of those very hard plastic stock water troughs installed in the ground for my pond. I have one fish in it that started out as a feeder fish in a local feed store and is now 9 years old. He has pretty much outgrown this pond and I want to get another larger one and put it above ground for the rest of the fish's life.
My question is are these hard rubber containers OK for above ground. The pond is currently about 40 gallons but he loves his upside down milk crate to hide and go into when he wants. This takes up most of the little pond so that is why I need to go larger.
I heard the galvanized tanks are no good for the fish because of the zinc. I just need to know if a larger version of what I have is OK to have above ground.
Thank you for your time
