Hi all, after arguing with the other half for many months I finally got my way to have a small garden pond. I live in rented accommodation so wasn't willing to dig a pond into the garden as when I move I want to be able to take my creation with me, therefore I opted for a raised pond on my patio which I built out of timber. I have fully insulated the pond for the colder months as I'm guessing in the ground ponds retain there heat from the ground surrounding them. I'm in the process of lining it and have purchased a nice little set up from a friend to get me started including a pressure filter, uv light and 100 litre an hour pump.
I'm really after some advice of what fish would be suitable for my pond and long it has to be up and running before I can introduce fish into it.
I'm a total beginner and really welcome any advice.
The pond is 500 gallons or just shy of 2300 litres.
Thanks for reading
Matt
