The bits of SMG I've tried run at full speed at stock clocks, which means unless the later parts of the game are really slow in comparison, the only reason I have to OC is faster Blender rendering, which I'm getting a GTX 770 in order to speed up, so therefore, I'll only need to OC to get a couple more years out of this chip or for bragging rights.

Ok, good so far. Without knowing how big it's going to be making a cost estimate is impossible. Make sure you position it in an area that's far away from trees/shrubs to prevent their leaves from falling into the pond when they shed. Make sure it's away from any potential source of runoff like a roof and in an area that gets plenty of direct sunlight. Make sure it's elevated to avoid runoff from rain and nearby soil. And make sure you consider ease of access to water and electricity. Don't put it too far away from the house or the electrical work is going to be a bitch. Zee530 Wrote:Never. Also how long is regularly? Depends. Could be every day. Could be never. It depends how fast the water evaporates in your area (which depends on temperature, humidity, exposure to sunlight, weather, dimensions of pond, etc.). The size of the pond (volume). How you've set up your system for water changing (small buckets vs. large barrels, etc.). And how much you're willing to let the water level drop. We have a wet season (floods) and a dry season (droughts) here. During the dry season I have to fill them every other day. Water evaporates VERY fast here because we live in a tropic climate which is hot, humid, and sunny all the time. But during the wet season I never have to fill them. Because the rain does it for me. Also the storm clouds reduce sunlight and therefore evaporation during the wet season. Zee530 Wrote:shouldn't it be okay so far there is enough water for fishes to freely swim in, Usually yes. It doesn't look good though when your pond isn't full. And you'll likely have some shallow water plants in the shallower areas of the pond which will be exposed if you let the water level drop more than a few inches. Zee530 Wrote:also confused about cleaning/changing the water with the fishes already inside, do you mean simply adding new clean water on top of the old one is enough to keep things sanitized? No. Water top offs are only for keeping the water level from dropping. They do nothing to improve the quality of the water as the impurities in the water do not evaporate out with the water. You're just replacing the water that was lost from evaporation, that's all. Cleaning the water can be done via filtration or water changes. A water change requires removing water from the pond by pumping it out then replacing it with new fresh water. How often to change the water and how much to change depends on a number of factors. How good is your filtration? How high is your bioload (foliage, debris, fish poop, excess fish food, anything that breaks down into sludge)? How clean do you want the water to be (a matter of personal preference)? I do recommend that at the very least you do a water change at least once a year no matter how clean your water is from filtration. It is recommended that you don't change more than 25% of the water at one time as doing more could actually do more harm than good due to sudden drastic changes in water chemistry. Many koi pond owners do weekly water changes but I personally think that's absurd if you have decent filtration. You could also do it monthly as a balance between those two extremes. When you do the water change I would also recommend you take the opportunity to cleanup some debris as well. A lot of sludge will accumulate over the course of a year. Even if you're careful about reducing your bioload and cleaning the filter regularly like I am. Just scoop out anything you can. I use a fishnet for this. I would also recommend doing a "deep clean" every 5 years. Pull everything out. Plants, fish, invertebrates, everything. Stick them in some spare buckets. Empty the pond completely, pressure wash it, and scrub it until it's spotless. Then refill and dechlorinate it. Put everything back in and start from scratch again. You should have seen my last deep clean. It was a nightmare. Sludge up to my knees. I shed a single tear after it was done upon realizing that it would never be this clean again until the next time. I should also mention that after filling the pond the first time, a deep clean, or a large water change you will get an algae bloom. That's normal. Don't freak out, I did my first time. Your tap water contains nutrients which will be quickly absorbed by any algae that survived your citys water treatment (chlorination) process). After dechlorination is finished the surviving algae cells will start reproducing rapidly in your pond until all the nutrients are consumed. They will cover every surface in a thick hairy green carpet and the water will look like pea soup. It will have a green hue and will be so thick that you won't be able to see more than a few inches below the surface. This process could take days or weeks. Of course this entirely depends on the properties of your tap water. Some tap water has higher nutrient levels than others depending on where is comes from and how it's treated. Without testing it I can't tell you exactly how bad it will be in your case. Also the more sunlight your pond gets the bigger the bloom will be. Don't let this discourage you from putting the pond in an area that receives a lot of sunlight though. Just let the algae bloom pass. Once the algae begins dying down the nutrients are gone and you can begin taking preventative measures to reduce the algae population further. We'll talk more about this later. We'll talk about filtration/pumps when/if your plan begins to take shape. What's your weather and temperature like during each of the four seasons? Two more questions that I asked earlier that I still need answers to: Do you have access to dechlorinators in your area? And what's the Ph of your tap water?
