i still haven't decided what to do with the crates though. the 75 would not fit in any kind of a show tank and then there is hooking up new plumbing to run over it. i don't think so.
it is either in the pond or sit out for a couple of days. i do have other filtration still running on the pond. 10 Matala mats submerged, 125 2' brushes in the vortex and a UltraUV 30,000 bead filter. no matter what i do i think i am covered for filtration even if it does take a hit.
if i put them in the pond i have a wetsuit to wear to retrieve them.
i will monitor the ammonia, etc levels daily though and post my results. i am not feeding very much now. about 3 cups a day.
