new pond ambition

Do you really need that screwed on there?
You could put a few screws in the right hand side of the front board, looks too close for even an angled drill.

Stubby screwdriver.

 

Thinking of a angled ratchet screw driver. Or angled drill bit.
I think if it was. All done like the rest it would look nice

 

Just depends on how much you want to spent to srcew two pieces of wood on.

 

hi just another update with another picture please let me know what you think thanks for all your help

 

Very nice Gizmo.
I presume you now have to work out how to get the pipe from the pump to the water feature so that its not too obvious.

 

thanks for your reply i was thinking of taking the pipe from the pump over the side nearest the fence so it goes around the side and back of pond to waterfall

or taking the pipe from the pump through the water inside of pond and over the back of pond near waterfall

not sure if there is another way of going it really ??

 

Not easy, for sure with a formal pond.

Maybe back RH corner, and under the raised up section you have along the back in the picture?

 

thanks for your reply i dont think i can go under the raised up section i have along the back in the picture as it is fixed it will have to go around the back of the waterfall feature some how ,
this is what i bought but its not come with hose or connector

If you look closely - you can see the taddies - pic taken today. Threw is some taddy food and one came up and grabbed a mouth full straight away.

 

just a update really waterfall and waterbutt connected just got to deceide on plants due to problems with algae and get electrian in to put a socket in for lights

 

hi i am woundering if i can create a boggy area or something similar in a corner of the pond and how would i go about this ..

as i am looking for plants i have come across this and woundered if it would be ok for our pond which is 6 x 5 feet x 30 inch deep , do they have to go into a container pond ?
CONTAINER PLANTING SCHEME H for sun (80cm)
CONTAINER PLANTING SCHEME A for sun (60cm)

i know its early but thinking about fish i done a calculation on our pond in gallons and it works out at around 450 gallons so i was thinking how many fish like goldfish , shubumpkin , etc would be ok
thanks for the advice
