LOL addy ponds are holes in the ground . No way past that . But the more you put into it the more work there is always to do . Ponding work never ends . I am glad that I built mine up after the flooding rains we have had over the years . This last Helene storm was a nightmare here . Flooding everywhere

I have not touched my big pond in many years. It is stable
Built it to require minimal maintenance.

The smaller loop ponds I have had to do edge maintenance, deer walk on the edges, stream, once a year, spring fix edgesrocks etc, deer walk on.

I wil never finish . The new peformed pond I got for free is now going to be a plant pond . I am looking at putting a solar aerator in it . Been looking at them on ebay . the big pond needs no work . I can never find anything made in America any more . The aerator I got was made in China and so are all lagunas and just about everything else . I even googled them

Well that's an understatement besides or friends on the other side of the pond , the last I checked they are all a hole in the ground.

Your creation is hardly a hole in the ground and no thought. Your build in the hill side as ND multiple ponds is insanely creative

Not with me @j.w it's going to get ugly before it gets better no doubt about that but I am very encouraged.
