Reinforced Tarpaulin (RT) from Benuwatts can be used in combination with a framework (made of galvanized pipe, wood, bamboo or even pressure pvc pipes) purchased separately from local vendors to set up mobile fish ponds.
With this type of fish pond, there is no need to put up with high cost and all the inconveniences that come with concrete, earthen or plastic ponds.
This modern fish pond is not only durable and less expensive, but can be easily installed/ uninstalled, and does not require any sort of permanent construction on land – thereby making it suitable for tenants, indoor/outdoor usage (provided there is adequate aeration), and also well-suited for backyard fish ponds as well as large scale fish farm projects.
