I love how you move so fast...hehe, you literally CAN'T wait. My suggestion since before was to add another liner into the pond. I am very confident that the metal frames can take the weight, but I am not so confident that the intex liner will hold. I understand you want it done fast, but you also want to take the extra time to build a strong foundation to last you at least a few years. Sometimes slow is faster brother.

My pond has the ff layers:
1. Intex Original Liner
2. Intex Blow up ring liner
3. Couple layers of Tarps
4. Final layer: a thick PVC material liner

I would have also made sure to smooth out all the creases before filling it up to the brim, this would make netting out poop or scrubbing the floor a bit easier. You also don't want creases and folds to be places where poop and dirt can gather.

Also, those metal frames need to be as much as possible, completely straight, 90 degree angle to the floor so that there is no danger of it bending through time. I don't know if it's just the angle of the picture but they don't look completely straight.

Am also a bit worried that your filtration table is flush against the wall, meaning any problems and you would have to climb the table to fix things. Ideally you'd want space behind it to be able to troubleshoot. And are you sure you want to use wooden tables for it? Might want to put some tarps over the tables to at least protect it against water splashes that will be sure to come.

But congratulations are still in order for getting it up! Cheers.
 
Your absolutely right MeAko and thank you again.
Is in my nearlly plans to buy an other stronger and thicker liner for the bottom of my pond.I just wait to find the one for me, cause i want something natural-looking and not a black one or white or nothing alse.
Remember where i live and how difficult is for me here to find all these stuff, who naver been to Greece before and that makes me order the most things from other countries!

Also i have acces to my filtration tables from behind, just doesn't show it in the video!:D
The tables are old but strong enough and doesn't matter if something destroyed from water!
I hope you like it!


Be patient my friend!:)

I have a question if someone knows...
The next stock is my 2 RTC's.
My 2 babyies have problem to be together thats why i put 3 big pvc hoose's in the pool so both of them find his own hide-home.
I don't know and i can't decide if these two fish (1 with bad character and 1 very good boy):D must get in the pool together, or the good boy first.....any suggestions would be healpfull!!;)
 
Hello,

very nice :headbang2

If u know where to buy EPDM-Liner in Greece I´d be thankful,
I´ll look at Praktiker next week but I think they only have PVC liner :irked:
 
It looks great! Your ID shark looks like he's having a blast flying around his new home.
