Valerie, Your pond is truly lovely. I'm hoping to put one in about that size, or a bit smaller, this year. Last year I had a 50 gallon kidney shaped...
Judy, No, I don't have the problem with depth restrictions. I am in a very rural area and we are on 50 acres of land, with no neighbours. If I were in a...
Hi Teri, Your ponds ideas sound great. Unfortunately, somehow I couldn't download the entire message with your description of your proposed pond. I don't...
Yeah, I figured it would have to do with ground freeze................how

Yeah, I saw that measurement process on a web site somewhere....that's how I
figured out the 2 used 30 gallon tanks I bought were really 20 gallons, but

Hi Judy, I imagine the 24" has to do with the 24" rule around here about
keeping fish.....they say if the pond is 24" deep, the fish will hibernate

the sides, and do the water lily thing, and surround the whole thing with

Hi Teri, During cold snaps, we can get down to the minus 20's to 30's. Some winters are milder, though, but most of the time my pond freezes into a solid block...
Dear Teri, Your pond ideas sound very nice. Yes, mine is in full sun. If you allow the water lily leaves to cover a lot of the surface of the pond, it does...
Hi Teri, That is the way we made our pond, with a pond liner. Valerie I also looked up on the web (ha ha, here I go again, no no, I have new living room...
Yes, the pond installation per se doesn't seem hard (I have only to dig through 2-3 feet of soft topsoil)- laying down the carpet scraps, then laying the...
I saw a pic on the web where they took the dirt removed from the hole dug
for the pond and built up around the pond with that........hmmmmmmmmmmm they

Dear Judy, It would be nice with a built up brick edging. We can't use bricks and mortar in outdoor features here, since it is too cold :-( Valerie Yes, the...
Judy, Ontario, Canada. We can't use brick in pathways or for little walls or that type of thing. It can be used on buildings. If we are going to do pathways...
How interesting! I didn't know that about the north, and I never thought of Ontario as being that far up there. My parents have a summer place on PEI, but I...
Judy, Some parts of Ontario are milder than we. Southern Ontario is quite a bit milder. PEI would be milder because of the ocean, however, they really get...
