Now here Wilson, let me break this down to you!

You are like a bass fish, and ponding is like a fisherman. Ponding has

cast
it's bait and hook, you my friend has bit on the baited hook, all that is
left for Ponding (Fisherman) to do now is reel you in baby! You've caught
the ponding bug!

You might as well just give in to this addiction and go ahead and build
yourself a big enough pond! Otherwise you will be back here asking us how
to convert your 200 gallon pond to a veggie filter and how to join a
preformed 200 gallon pond to a 2000 gallon epdm lined pond!

Haaaah! I feel so much better now! Welcome to our little POND club!


I get the feeling you're trying to say a 200 gal pond isn't really a pond.
I would but I just don't have the room....and from my aquarium
experience, yes I do realize a bigger pond/tank is easier to take care of.

My wife wasn't thrilled at all about the idea of having any kind of water
feature in the yard until I(sneakily) built a little raspberry garden in the
corner of the yard for her.....I then sunk a little 10 gal. preform and a
small pump in the middle and set up a little frog that shoots the water out
of his mouth, lined it with some really nice river rock I had lying
around....it looks really sharp! At first she turned her nose up at it, but
I've since caught her filling it up with water every night and going over to
look at it quite a lot. I then got the ok from the boss to build my
waterfall ......and this is important....nothing bigger than 200 gal. :P
