Some pics of my pond.

Amazon (Trent), I'd rather not say pricewise, suffice to say, it wasn't cheap! Could probaly of saved some money if I did some of the work myself, but I basically suck at making things, so it got pricey.
Looking at those pics of yours makes me think mine could do with a few more plants. By the way, most of the rocks on mine have holes drilled into them to support pipelines to automatically water the plants (using the same pump that pushes the waterfall).
If you decide to go ahead with your pond, I suggest you seal the cement really well, even if you have to pay a few extra hundred dollars. I have had huge problems with my ph and possibly lime poisoning some of my fish because of insufficient sealing.
Hasi, I will take more pics soon, its been raining alot here.

I'll be sure to look into the sealing really well because big ph problems aren't a good thing. Those pics have had extensive growth time it was Villa Di Este or something along those lines a really famous villa in Italy near Sienna if I remember correctly. Their whole garden setup was just incredible with some of the best water features I've ever seen. Not trying to sidetrack the thread but heres a couple other water features they had. I think after you get it all landscaped bro its gonna be even better and I'm sure you'll do it right like you did the pond. I'll be looking forward to pics when you get it all landscaped! ~Trent
I would love to see that in person.
Yeah I would like to build an outdoor pond for cichlids. But have the same problem as you.
Where about in Sydney are you? I am at East Hills.
