DIY - wood framed pond - am I nuts ?

Very sturdy looking build, I guess your not planning on putting anything in that garage anytime soon.

Any plans for some sort of covering to keep wildlife and your fish where they each belong?

Not sure - I am hoping the depth and location will keep critters away. I am considering adding a sun shade which might also deter birds.

Added one of my hybrids today ..

Nice fish!

Added a temporary sun shade - until I figure out something better

Different angle

Pond holding strong, fish growing fast. This red tail is outgrowing everything else at like 3x the rate.

In the pond atm - 1 red tail, 2 RTC/TSN hybrid, 2 TSN, 2 albino Chanel cats

Still working great. Water is very clear, no leaks, and my red tail cat must be at least 2ft long - growing like crazy

Thanks for the update and wood love to see a pic of the RTC if possible.
