Need help I'm new to pond s

[Kenneth]

What is your winter weather like, Kenneth?

Not bad today is 18 c

 

[MitchM]

Ok, but how cold can it get there, and for how long?

.

 

[Kenneth]

Hmmm might go down to5c for a bit but not for Long

 

[MitchM]

Ok, then as long as you keep the pond well aerated for now your fish will be fine.
What do you have for filtration?

 

[Kenneth]

Submersible 1000 lh pump plus UV

 

[MitchM]

Ok, but what do you have for detritus removal?

 

[Kenneth]

The pump is a filter as well I clean filter every 2 days

So that means it has a foam filter .You may need more than that as the fish grow .In the winter I use a crate or flower pot with my pump in it and lava rock in it .Lava rock filters are old fashioned but they work .
