need to ask you about your waterfall as it looks like a black tub with a spout .How did you attach the spout or did it come like that I cannot see it closely enough to tell .I just bought a stock tank I wanted to use like that at the other end of my pond

You are like me harbor freight pump 22 dollars 1268gph and no uv as they are expensive and you have to replace the bulbs every year because they loose there power .I use lava rock in my filters and buffer pads from lowes lava 3.38 and filters 6.00 .my fish are healthy and have not lost one in 6 years .also like the video you have a lot of fish and they look healthy and happy .
