New pond in VA

[NancyE]

Hi. I live in Va and my husband and I built an aquascape pond this year. It's been my dream for many years, and I can't believe it's actually in the backyard now. I'm an avid gardener, and have many plants inside and outside of the pond. It's 2500 gallons, and we have about 12-14 fish in there. 6 koi and at least 6 goldfish, a couple black goldfish, and one cool looking fish that I've named halfbreed because he really does look like a cross between a goldfish and a koi. Don't know if that's possible as they've only been in there for 3 months, but he's a cool fish. We've had our ups and downs already with our pond, and we've already learned a few things the hard way. We lost a few fish due to our stupidity, but hope to not have that issue again. We love our pond, and I hate that fall is closing in already. I look forward to reading about everyone's ponds here.

I started watching that new show on tv (Pond Stars) where they are building Aquascape Ponds. Would love to see how you built yours and how it is doing. Pictures would be great
