This is probably the best stock tank pool video I’ve seen. I realize it was done a few years ago, and some of the links for supplies don’t work. Would you be able to update to comparable supplies or where to buy your recommended products.

Curious how cleaning/changing the filter is going. We've got an inflatable one and are looking to take the filter to a stock tank, but the inlet and outlet valves have stoppers to keep the water in while doing pump maintenance. I really like the setup here though, and am curious how you keep the water in while working on the pump and filter. Thanks for sharing!

@SteadyStreaminCashios

So we have some pine trees close by and it’s pretty windy at times where we live. I change the filter about every 2 weeks just because it gets clogged a bit and you can tell when the valve doesn’t push water out as hard as it should.

My solution to clean the filter. Lift the Intex filter pump up just above the level of the inflow water line (the outflow line will be below the inflow line, so no problem there). I set the little Intex pump on a table next to the pool. My table has a slight edge on it, so it catches the edge of the pump, and the pump stays right there solid while I open it, clean the filter with the water hose, and put the filter back in, tighten up, place the filter pump back on the patio. Done. You might want someone to hold the filter pump on your table so it doesn't fall off while you clean the filter. Another workaround to make that Intex pump limp along a little longer. My Intex 300 gph has lasted four seasons, but I think some impellers are broken so now I have to tap the pump on the patio to shake the broken impellers to the bottom of the impeller casing so they are out of the way of the existing impellers. I haven't been able to buy an Intex pump this season - China's production stopped for quite a long time.

Hey there, in the videos description there a products used with links for you to view and purchase. I’m not quite sure as to the permanent base you are referring to off the top of my head!

Would you mind explaining why you put the intake and output right on top or each other? In every other stock tank pool tutorial I’ve seen them separate them, putting a hose on each side (opposite directions) the same way they are installed on intex above ground pools . Thanks! Great video! We are gonna do hydrogen perioxide.

Steady Streamin Cashios thank you! Worked out great for us! Been going for about 3 days now, we went chlorine tablets route. Our ph is kinda high. Any tips on how much baking soda to add when the ph is about 8? We have the smaller 5ft stock tank that caps put around 400 gallons full. Thanks!

Great stock tank video! Thanks for sharing;). I’m trying to decide between metal & poly one. Concerned about zinc leashing from galvanized one, did you do any research on that? I think it’s great you’re using peroxide, I didn’t know that was an option. Chlorine makes me sick. Thanks for that tip too. How’s your stock tank holding up this spring?

Hey, we make sure feet are clean and free of debris/grass before they get in. The hydrogen peroxide has worked well for us. It has been hard to find since it was used a lot during 2020 for medical reasons. We also purchased a small Ryobi pool vacuum to keep it clean. It has worked well for us. Good luck with the Airstream rental, that sounds super fun!

How do you figure out how much Borax and/or baking soda you need to add to adjust the pH? I set up mine used it one day and the next it was already very cloudy and the pH levels are too high. I put chlorine tablets the second day of having it, not sure if that messed it up or what. Would like to try your alternative.
