Sissy's sock

[j.w]

Think they don't put pictures of rocks on liners cuz the liners all get covered w/ a fine carpet of algae anyways so you wouldn't see them much unless you are a really clean freak. But yep that rock and roll stuff is good for the edges that show out of the water.

I was able to get the "Rock Sock" finally put in under the waterfall. Now to finish filling!!

My neighbor is having problems with rock and roll stuff it did not hold up to ice a freezing .It was shredding .I just got back from her house because she could not figure out what the pieces of stuff were floating around in her pond and stuck to her pump .We pulled some of it out that shredded and I left her netting the pond and then she has to put the pump back in .I took it apart and took the stuff out from inside the pump .Uv had to be cleaned out and I left her to do it as she is trying to learn to take care of the pond herself .Has anyone else noticed this, that has rock on a roll .She put it in only last year so it is not old

I never tried it since I never really liked the look of it. I know Addy has some but she hasn't had any problems with it that I know of.

 

[sissy]

I am not sure if it was caused by the freeze and thaw of the ice around the edges of the pond .That is what it looked like to me at first .I told her to take pics and send it to rock on a roll.

 

[tbendl]

I would. That stuff is pricey and should not shred with the cold.

 

[sissy]

I never had it so I could not really help her except to get it out .She said she is going to take it all off the sides also that is still there .Poor Tammy has more problems than I have ever seen

We've all had our moments.

I use the rock on a roll around both ponds. No problems after 5+ years. When I redid one area I have to use metal snips to cut it off the liner. It was glued down with the PL goop.

I wonder if it is just the newer stuff or she got a defective batch .Her hubby came home and was not happy about the wasted money on it .I told her to contact the company online and that is all I can do .

Mine is in ice, snow, deer walked on as it aged it is just as new, just looking more "natural" No shredding, no issues

 

[j.w]

Sounds like a faulty batch to me

 

[C-Note]

Wha???? That's genius, for rocks OR plants! I screwed those nasty plastic plant boxes under the wood around the edge of my pond for the shallow water plants, but they are so ugly. These little screen "socks" would have rocked! I may have to convert.

I LOVE mine!!
