What is that 600 gallon preformed made of? I didn't know that you could get
one that big for $ 100--

Hi, everyone! I have been reading through this board and have decided to
jump
in and get my feet wet!

I am planning to install a small pond in the next few weeks and have read
a lot
on the subject over the past few years, but I would still appreciate any
advice, comments, or thoughts from you guys.

For around $100, I can get a 600 gallon preformed pond with waterfall, or
a
1200 gallon liner with some other goodies (fountains, etc.). I know
bigger is
almost always better, but what would be some advantages and disadvantages
to
both types of ponds?

I have 3 goldfish that would go in the pond and I would also like a few
plants.
I also wonder how deep I would need to make the liner pond in zone 5 for
over
wintering the fish and plants? Would two feet be sufficient?

Thanks!

Michelle
