Nice! I think about moving my praecox outside in summer but haven't got around to it yet. It's winter here again lol

[@jeffkane4391]

How cold is your winter? And aren't you from Australia? It's possible they might over winter for you if you set it up properly 😁

@@jeffkane4391 where I live get quite cold. Overnight it was 23 F recently. Up north it is a lot warmer.

[@jeffkane4391]

That's definitely a little chilly 🥶

[@richardreynolds9896]

Cool

INTERESTING!!! NO WATER FLOW IN THE TUBS? I HAVE THEM ON MINE, BUT LOOK LIKE YOURS A LOT!

[@jeffkane4391]

I intended to tie all of them together but decided against it. So they are Wind blowen and plant filtered. The 55-gallon barrels have 8 ish adults in each the bio load is ridiculously low by my standards.

@@jeffkane4391 WIND BLOWN IS AWESOME, BUT HERE IN SWFL, WHAT WIND? LOL THANK YOU!

[@sghettinona]

That's the downside with tubs- it's so hard to see the fish. I like to look at sunset - just before it's really dark.

[@jeffkane4391]

I only need to know they are doing good. Otherwise they are welcome to all the privacy they want

[@GCaquatics]

oohhh rainbows, how large do these get?

[@jeffkane4391]

3 ish inches

[@SlimTim_dirty_aquatics]

Come out come out

[@jeffkane4391]

Right 😆

[@Aquarium_Fantasy-HF]

How many ponds do you have

[@jeffkane4391]

Just these 3 currently, I have been watching for a couple of swimming pools for the right price that I can put in the ground for an experiment 😉😁

[@Aquarium_Fantasy-HF]

Now I am curious about that swimming pool, I'll be looking forward to that 😀
