2400 Gallon Pond / Tank Build Pictures

[Kaya]

Not really an update.. managed to fix the cowls on the top skimmer and bottom drain.. had to do a little bit of sawing and cutting..

Actually had the carpenter around the whole day and the guys supposed to deliver that one frosted glass pane never turned up though they were around the corner and were reminded like some 3 to 4 times.. little irritating..

Finally.. One step closer to completing the build.. got the carpentry work done today.. fixed the missing frosted pane..

Added additional support between the frames to give the roof a more smoother curved finish..

I was out of town for a day, the tile guys came in and fixed the untiled part of the tank.. so now i don't have to worry about water splashing around..

Painted the frame black..
