anybody have one of those hard plastic pools [or two] they are not using at present?
i need to borrow one for my koi when i clean out the pond next weekend. the fish will be in the pool for less than a day.
i’ll pick up and return.
otherwise, it’s gonna cost about $35 to buy one. help.
Paul, I have about 10-15 5gal buckets if that will help.
Paul, why don’t you just buy the pool and return it for your money back.

LOLLOL
don’t worry Paul, hang in there… medicare approval for your chair is coming soon :

hope so. i need medical approval for something!
i have a tuff tub i had been keeping my 4 18 inch koi in. but i neglected cleaning the filter or something for a few days and they died. a couple weeks ago. its sitting there with water and hyacynths covering the water. air pump running. AND a bio filter, if i clean the pump intake filter. takes a minute. i can clean the tub of algae on the sides, sterilize whit a clorox wash and declor.
soft and lite. about 53 x 36 x 20 deep. 110 gallon.

I need to clean it up for storage anyway. i just pulled the hyacynths out. they weredying and rotting. had some cold nights. seems there was a lot of leaves and muck on the bottom. fish must have died from lack of oxygen one night and swamp gas from the muck. oh well they lived in the tub for 5 years. too big for the small tub.
but you can borrow the whole setup, tub, pumps and filters , short term. im cleaning it right now.
ken that’s wonderful/thanks. talk to ya.
Yes I have a pool but its only about 10" deep. I bought for the dogs in the summer to play in.

hey Paul, whe do you need the instant koi tub? all cleaned and cycling again with clean water and bacter.
when i bring it down, we just fill it with your pond water and its ready to plug in and go. Do you have an air pump out there with 1/8 inch air tubing for the lifter air stone?
this tub will hold some of your fish, but not 30. so find some others. too.
say when.

it’s still looking like saturday morning to start this operation. i’d like to get rid of at least a dozen koi. anyone taking them needs to have something to transport them in, heavy plastic bags or a cooler, 5 gal buckets, etc. thanks
