hard to believe there's fish living in there but you dug that 4 feet deep in spots right? can't wait to see what you do with it this year.

I just read through this, were looking at maybe doing something to the yard. We have a hill in the corner I wouldn't mind doing a waterfall from down to a pond. This starts the wheels turning, was at a lfs tonight and had some massive koi so friendly too came out of the water to check us out. Cool stuff where did you find most of the info on the design and build of the pond plumbing and equipment ?

Like everyone else has said well done, it's great to see such high end work.

Only went 24". Any deeper then you'd need a swimming pool permit here in Edmonton.

Wes, I learned a lot from building my front pond 8 yrs ago. The. I went based on the experience of water works pond Edmonton because their display pond has been running for years and it's always spotless and they winter their fish outside too so I knew they had long term success in our climate.

Dez I was reading in another thread about your use of peroxide in your pond, what do you use that for?
