Tennessee newbie!

Hello to you all. I joined this forum to increase my knowledge of this amazing science. My first question relates to a fish tank. About 3 years ago I dug a pond in my backyard, complete with a waterfall/circulation system and stocked it with goldfish. Is there any reason why this could not be the nutrient source? Thanks, Dan

tip of the turban to you Dan,
nutrient source for what mate? ...you or some flora? Feeding food plants with goldfish water is just so rewarding (eating Goldfish sucks,,-lots a little bones :wink: )
Getting the balance right in your aquaculture is an art. System collapse just keeps happening till one day you get the balance right.
I have a yabby and a sweet potato aquaculture that waxes and wanes but keeps going.

regards, Kimbo

G'day newbie. Only ones I have ever seen eating goldfish are cats and frat boys. Kimbo, more on the sweet potato and yabbie aquaculture, please? T
