I guess I have to play devil's advocate here. The whole idea of a show
like
this is to suck a newbie in, **SEE HOW EASY THIS CAN BE DONE!!**
That means more ponders, more ponders posting here needing help, more
members for pond/koi clubs, etc. etc., this afterall IS an ADDICTION and
misery loves company, oh.... I'm.... so pond-Elated today. ;o)

I guess, but I'd rather they learn slowly and carefully, otherwise instead
of new posts with great pictures, we get 'All my fish are dead, what
happened?'.

Personally I liked the two circle pond. The pH had to be off the chart
though since they didn't mention an acid wash or soak for that mortar. The
corner pond was cute, I just wonder if all that red brick inside with the
water would affect the water quality, pH or something? Anything that hides
the liner is a good thing, imo, if it doesn't affect the water quality.

I think they were all very nice looking. In fact, I may steal the idea for
the corner pond.
