My New 100 Gallon Pond

[BettaUK]

I had a few Gold that came from a Fair a few years ago, they lived indoors for a while then got moved a water barrel feature. I decided they needed a new home and found a 100 Gallon raised pond on eBay .

Took a long drive to the Cotswolds from Isleworth and on my return set to work re building the pond..

Have since planted around the pond, got the UV pond Filter (Green Genie) setup and placed the fish in their new home (They seem much happier, and seem more relaxed since adding a couple of companun's

What do you all think

Looks good and I like the idea of a mobile pond. Saves you having the dig a hole and all that jazz. Plus I think it will look much better towards the end of the summer when the plants have filled out some. Make sure to post more pics when they do. Good work.

Everyone, yes once the plants have started to mature it should look more natural.

Pond plants now include:

OXYGENATING PLANTS
Callitriche verna
Hottonia palustris

MARGINAL PLANTS
Iris pseudacorus
Iris sibirica
Juncus ensifolius
Juncus effusus
Schizostylis pink

DEEP WATER PLANTS
Nymphaea sp.

I will add a few more pics in the future, so we can see the ponds growth!
