Thats a fine idea. How do you plan to make spill-ways for them? If
you use tank adaptors I'd go with 1 1/2" PVC to allow for a fast
gravity fed flow.

It looks like your pond does not have an overflow drain? I'd consider
this so you can control the rain overflow, rather than it just spilling
out over the top.


my plan was to beat the metal a little to create a "spout" for want of a
better word, as each is a size smaller, they will (I hope (I haven't got
them yet) sit under the rim of eachother and thus the water slow over my
"spout" and into the next one.. maybe with a little liner across to stop
seepage (might silicone them together to stop this too)

the other plan is a narrow wooden sided stream (with liner) (ladder like) to
get the same sort of effect, the water flowing from chamber to chamber...

I've passed these idea's off amongst a few friends.. and they seem to think
the wooden ladder idea is more in keeping with the pond as it is.. and
might well be the way forward..

me, I'm still throwing ideas about in my head each time another idea hits
me... I'm £500 UKP over budget on the pond at the moment, so all this is a
little future planning (maybe for next spring)
