Pond contractor finished 9/10ths of my pond in two days! Have to wait for more rock in order to complete it. I am so pleased with the outcome. You won’t see any equipment/wires when he is done. Now for the fun part…plants and fish!

Thanks All! The pond is 9 x 12 x 2.5' deep...So no koi, just a few shubunkins are planned:) There is a good size fish cave at the bottom. Anyone have any experience with ordering from Nextdaykoi? I am going to add plants first though....

...Such a nice group of people here:)
omg, we sure got YOU fooled! heh heh Wait until GB runs his bike past yer pond and makes 'em all scatter! Or addy launches an old car down her driveway and it slides all the way into Florida, just lookin' for RDub's brand new pond! Then there's j.w -- we don't like to talk about her...in public...shrink's get ALL her time! Even the moments she claims should be MINE!

Dime's a good one, though; please cast your vote so he can attain full knighthood when the application arrives in your mailbox. We need this so we can get Ian to do a wholesale GPF pay hike; some of us are getting awful skinny!

j/k (or is it??? mmmmmuuuuuuwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaa...gack! sowwy, got something stuck in my throat. Dayum, I think it's a poop-bug...that's the problem with reading some of these threads over and over and over...)

Don't ask me how rubber a material that does not absorb water how it can draw water up a couple inches within a fold . Not trying to rain on your parade I'm just adding preventative maintenance before it has a chance to be a problem
