Hi All,
After some weeks of head scratching and bumbling around I've finally finished my "bog in a box" filter. All I need to do is attach a hose and press play. HOWEVER, the weather has taken a turn for the worse, it's cold and wet and the garden plants are beginning to wind down. To cap it all, my fish are in hiding under a floating wodge of plants and have refused to come out for three days now (I've never known them to forego their meals before, either). Is it the wrong time to try it out, would it be better to wait for the spring, which is at least five months away? We never know what kind of winter we'll have. It could include a prolonged freeze or could be warm'ish and wet throughout.
