I have used my swimming pool for fish and plants for a few years now, since
my children have left home. it grows algae very well too :-(
The only fish I have in it are m. mccullochi(Etty Bay) which do very well
all year round in Brisbane. So far the fish haven't caught anything serious
from the human pool users ( or dogs for that matter)
Regards,
Bruce.
