Container Fountains

This is my first time trying something like that. I am 30 gallon half barrel garden with 2-3 goldfish, snails, aquatic flora and appropriate (hyacinth, Anacharis, parrot feather ...). I would like a fountain and a filter, but the nearest electrical outlet is 50 ft away. I try to avoid the hassle of installing cable UF, and considered as an alternative to this solar fountain:

I can not say if the fountain pump is also a filter, and it will not be running 24 / 7. I have read but have not been able to determine what degree of filtration is recommended for gardens containing fish. At least it keeps the water from becoming stagnant, which can slow the growth of algae, and it will help to oxygenate the water. If I had a couple of solar fountain with weekly water changes of 20%, this would be enough to deter algae growth and maintain levels of ammonia nitrite / down?

From my experience of having a pump going 24 / 7. This keeps the water running and if the pump has a built in filter, it also keeps the water clean. Occasionally you may have to change the water according to how much sun you get the basin containing some degree of green water is algae. snails help keep the algae growing on the bottom and sides of your own container, but a good filter is a plus. check with your local Earl may or anywhere you have found the container pond. Sometimes less is better when it comes to pools small container that you are willing to do so.

Firstly, where is your sense of the economy? A fountain pump costs $ 20.00, and the high costs and an extension having substantially the same. Secondly, if you have the right balance between plants and fish that you will not need a filter or a fountain. I think you had better do more research. I have 2 water gardens in my backyard, and do not own a filter or fountain, and the algae when the sun is warm and temperatures are too. And they are much more than 30 gallons!

you may have to speak to someone special on this as a county agent at the Capitol. i saw a shop alongside the road near a farm nursery dug a pond for you and
put fish, rocks, trees and a large fountain in the middle of it. Maybe you've seen such a place and they could give you some help. provided that the electricity will use an extension cord with a timer connected to one end so that off and on while you, re
disappeared. I also saw the windmills along the side of a pond of agitation and kill weeds.
