blue tubeing connected to the pump will be covered with a bunch of pond plants and the other blue tubing connected to the waterfall will be covered in river stones. I just feel like somethings missing. terrible cell phone pics ill have way better pics by friday. :nilly: thanks!


PS; this is my *Show* pond(so it has to look nice...), not like the other ponds that are filled with monsters ill have an update on my other 2 ponds friday also!
 
thanks :D and nope i acutally did this my self and am 14. just lots of digging thats only the hard part really. fiting the liner adding the gravel and all the fluff was super easy. my other ponds were way easyer as i didnt add "fluff".
 
If i were you id take it all apart and make it about 10x bigger. Get rid of those bricks and use flat sandstone and create a lip over the edge of the pond. Change the waterfall into a bigger stone waterfall. Then get urself some lilly pads and water hyacinths to put in there as vegetaion. The hyacinths have nice purple and blue flowers. Then get urself a nice sized RTC to put in that baby.


Haha i mean thats what id do. Im about to start my RTC pond soon.

Thats what im about to sta
 
I would add some floating plants and a branchy piece of driftwood or two. I also like redtail's idea top switch out bricks with natural stone

Agreed, and it looks great imo, makes me think I could start a pond of my own soon. Good job dude. :D
