Green Water: Yes
Country: Australia



Its been atleast 3 weeks since my Goldfish have been transferred into my 1000ltr pond with green water. The initial culture of greenwater was a success! Places afew oranda to seed the pond and test of everything was ok, then my collection went in. In these 3 weeks I have changed the water only once! Which was yesterday afternoon. The pond has no filtration, but it has aeration. The aeration in on 24/7 which allows oxygen for the greenwater as well as the goldfish at nights when the oxygen levels are low.

When changing the green water, I only keep about 50ltrs of it for reseeding the pond.

The following photo and videos are taken 2 hours before I seed the pond with the old greenwater.

Hope you enjoy!

HI Mango,


I loved your fish.. they seems so happy with the outdoor pond
but don't forget to look at them from time to time... because when the green gets thicker... there is a possibility for OB especially when it has too much Oxygen at night...


I think thats how you lost the 2 pearls.. anyway...
great Job on this post...

I thought that oxigen-burnt only occurs during day-time when sunlight is strong and green is too thick, too much oxigen is produced.
During night, the process reverse and the green will consume oxigen and compete with the fishes, thus, aeration is definitely needed during night time.

Hi mango, I might be wrong, your tancho ranchu#1 showing initial sign of dropsy....scales are popping out near gill area ?
