This is my 40 gallon mini pond stock tank which contains my school of mosquitofish and some golden top minnows.

The last picture is of my ponds newest resident: a frog I named Hopediah.🤣

The hornwort looks great . What’s that floating plant ? I really wanted to do one of these stock pond tubs last year but didn’t

The stem plant is Bacopa Caroliniana. It floats until its roots reach the floor and it pulls itself down.

The rest is algae: the most important plant for most tanks with livebearers.😁
 
I was going to remove some of the wood growing underneath and between the plants and algae for another project, but thought better of it. I think I have somewhere between 15 and 25 mosquitofish in here. Can't wait for that number to boom in the summer. 😁

I bet they'll reproduce well in the summer... That's what they did at my place....
 
The the Hosanna Pond survived their first 20°f freezing with flying colors this week.
