Default Steve is building a pond!

Hi everybody, I hang out on "the freshwater aquarium" every now and
again, less since I've become a pond nut. I still have my planted
aquariums in the house, but they don't get quite as much attention as
they used to. I did spring for some new amazon swords for the big
discus tank. They look happy.

Anyway, here's a quickie web page I put together to show my pond
build.http://www.geocities.com/erviservy/pond/ThePond.htm

I found a forum called "Koiphen" a while back and got all the help and
hints I could before I started. They really are a nice bunch there. If
you're thinking about building a pond, or re-doing one you already
have, I recommend dropping by there for a visit. The "pond
construction and filtration" forum has everything you'd ever want to
know about building a koi pond.

enjoy!

Kudos to you Steve and welcome to the "Club" (or the obsessed! :-P )
I know what you mean about the aquarium. Mine has been languishing
for about a year now... Still has water and fish in it, some good
algae for them to eat, but talk about neglect! I will remedy that in
a couple of weeks.
Thanks for the tip on the Koiphen group. Will take a look as I am
contemplating expanding my pond just a little bit and could use some
advice on fusing liners or just purchasing a new one (Arrg! That
would be about $800).
Take care and keep up posted!
