I live where winter does not allow you to keep the fishes of the Southeastern states in a pond year round. My pond use is late spring to early fall. My question is, "what do you use?" . What plants? Substrate? Filters,if any? Changes of water? What fish combos? And what about hair algea?
I have some American Flagfsh,Bluefin Killies (favorite) Least livebearers. And then dwarf cichlids,Pltties and guppies. Just looking to see what you folk have tried.
Peace of the season to you, Randy

well lets get some more details first.
what size pond? how much sun does it receive on a daily basis? etc. hair algae isn't an issue if you have good plant life, and if you don't it still makes a nice food source for many fry and even the adults eat a lot of it depending on the species. Filters depend mainly on the size of the pond I have least killies in a 35 gallon tub with no filter yet I run a full 1800 gallon recycle on several of my more "active" ponds
