ok heres some pics, been working on it for 2 weeks or so. ok this is whats going on, i have had a 270 gallon pond for few years, and decided to upgrade, anyways the new pond is about 40 ft down the hill from the old pond and is 2400 gal. im building a creek from the old pond to the new pond, with the pump going from the new pond and pumping into the old, and it runs over and so on, you get the idea. but im not done. im also going to build a bridge over the creek later on. but heres some pics anyways.

i guess just goldfish lol, i have no idea, im just going with my ideas and building
 
haha,i wish i had the time for one right now,just for my big cats
 
Ok it's been 12 hrs is done yet?! :D

Have you considered putting pea sized gravel in the bottom of the "creek"? It would make for a great bio-filter that long (I think Mother Nature uses something like that ;)).

Maybe little inner tubes for the fish to go rafting :headbang2:headbang2.
